Another example is the berlin configuration; attempting to reconfigure
it currently yields:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ sudo guix system reconfigure -L modules berlin.scm
guix system: warning: the following accounts appear more than once: zabbix
guix system: warning: the following groups appear more than once: zabbix
guix system: error: canonicalize-path: No such file or directory: 
"../../sync-disarchive-db.scm"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm positive this is new behavior.

Thanks,

Maxim
