bug#36389: nginx/certbot interaction doesn't work as documented

I’ve tried setting up nginx with certbot on guix. Two immediate issues: - certbot extends the nginx service to serve challenge files. It appears that this nginx service extension conflicts (silently) with an independently configured nginx service. I.e., I had nginx previously configured, and

bug#36389: odd

I agree that it sounds odd, and some of my original diagnostic must be skewed. After several configuration changes and system reconfigurations and nginx restarts, I do appear to have a sensible state currently, and I can’t reliably reproduce the problems I had before. I’m also pretty sure I didn’t

bug#36388: activation?
