"sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm"

but running this command will request (after it finish) to restart some
services which cant be restarted leading to the error in the title.

The problem is that you need to be root to run these commands. We should
adjust the hint to say that.

Yes please, And make the error message sane/understandable with human
language as i couldnt understand from the error message oh it needs root
access because it doesnt say that anywhere.

Note that ‘herd’ cannot guess whether you intend to talk to your user
shepherd and it’s not running, or whether you intend to talk to the
system shepherd.

So the hint should suggest both possibilities.

(At some point we should extract the diagnostic code of Guix and make it
a separate library so that the Shepherd can use it as well.)

Its more of an enhancement not a bug. Did the popup message put in any
better way than the current state?
