       When I stop user's shepherd with kill or herd stop root it doesn't cleanup /run/user/1000/shepherd/socket and to run a new instance I have to remove it manually. Is it intended behavior or it's time to dive into shepherd sources? 🤔

       @abcdw@fosstodon.org When calling sudo herd stop root, the system reboots, maybe they are the same?

       @abcdw why would one want to kill (user) shepherd itself?

       @abcdw I'm guessing that this isn't intended because this sounds like it could be the cause of why my laptop configured with guix home (on arch) doesn't start properly ~50% of the time. I guess one of on-first-login and the other startup script starts and kills shepherd and then the other tries and fails. Now I have no shepherd while still having a pid file for it and the second one won't start shepherd anymore.

       @ruffni I try the approach, where shepherd is started by compositor/window manager to obtain required environment variables and it make sense to kill this shepherd process after compositor exits.

       @ryuslash It shouldn't be this way, please report it to bug-guix with as much information as possible.

       @abcdw I've been meaning to, but I haven't been able to find the time yet. I'll see if I can find a moment today.
