I tried, but I do not know why: unbound-variable service


The below code run have problem, and I think shepherd is not run, for 
'ps aux |grep shepherd' can not found info.

(define xautolock-service
  (shepherd-service
   (provision '(xautolock))
   (documentation "Run 'xautolock'")
   (start #~(make-forkexec-constructor
             (list #$(file-append xautolock "/bin/xautolock")
                   "-detectsleep")))
   (stop #~(make-kill-destructor))))


...

     (service
      home-syncthing-service-type)

     (service
      home-shepherd-service-type
      (home-shepherd-configuration
       (shepherd shepherd)
       (services
        (list xautolock-service))))
