Hey guix family!

The cookbook decribes a method of auto login to tty. I have noticed that si=
nce
the latest shepherd upgrade (that's my best guess as to when the error occu=
red),
I have been unable to auto login to any tty as the cookbook describes. I ha=
ve
created a minimal guix system vm, to test the auto-login to tty. I have set=
 up
ttys 2 - 4 to auto login my user joshua, but when I boot the vm only tty1 is
auto logged in. The other tty's are not logged in.  Is auto login supposed =
to be
restricted to one partiular tty?

Thanks,

Joshua

P.S.  Here is the test vm.

Hey Leo, you helped me create this cookbook guide initially.  I thought
you deserve to know that auto-login to tty is not working like it used
to.  I am not asking you to drop everything and fix this.  Instead I am
just letting other interested parties know.

Thanks!

Joshua
