Guix has been pestering me about the deprecation of `tor-hidden-service` for a year now. So I checked out the manual to see the correct official way that replaces `tor-hidden-service`:
```text
-- Variable: tor-service-type
Type for a service that runs the Tor (https://torproject.org)
anonymous networking daemon. The service is configured using a
‘<tor-configuration>’ record. By default, the Tor daemon runs as
the ‘tor’ unprivileged user, which is a member of the ‘tor’ group.
Services of this type can be extended by other services to specify
“onion services” (in addition to those already specified in
‘tor-configuration’) as in this example:
(simple-service 'my-extra-onion-service tor-service-type
(list (tor-onion-service-configuration
(name "extra-onion-service")
(mapping '((80 . "127.0.0.1:8080"))))))
```
I created a simple `configuration.scm` that uses the above example verbatim in the `services` list, and got this error on `guix system build`:

Please do not deprecate `tor-hidden-service` until your replacement has actually been tested to ***actually work*** on some very simple use-case example.
I attached the simple example that fails.
