Hej guys,

so I hope this actually is a bug and not something not yet implemented or a misunderstanding on my part.

In the process of changing my login manager to slim (over gdm), I noticed that the (keyboard-layout ...) form does not work the same way in the (bootloader)/(set-xorg-configuration) and the (slim-configuration) form. While in the former cases, (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout) uses the string I inputted in the beginning of the config file, an error is thrown when I try to do the same in the (slim-configuration) form (error 1). When I simply use (service slim-service-type) and try to supplement via (set-xorg-configuration), an error is thrown as well (error 2).

Have a good day folks, guix rules :)

### The errors (with my shabby translations)
1) user@computer ~$ sudo guix system reconfigure src/guix-config/os-desktop.scm
Passwort:
guix system: error: „src/guix-config/os-desktop.scm“ could not be loaded: /home/user/src/guix-config/os-desktop.scm:68:30: Wrong type to apply: #<<keyboard-layout> name: "de" variant: #f model: #f options: ()>

2) user@computer ~$ sudo guix system reconfigure src/guix-config/os-desktop.scm
guix system: error: Der Dienst „xorg-server“ kommt mehr als einmal vor


### The config file (note that some parens might be unbalanced because I tried to remove the "unnecessary" stuff)
