Hi Guixers,

I have a question about home-*-service-types that create a user's shepherd service.

If I have such services in my home-environment and login, logout and login again, I have multiple instances of the processes running, the shepherd should manage. Shouldn't the shepherd services (and the corresponding processes) automatically be stopped (killed), if I log out from all ttys? This does not seem to be the case.

I observed this with home-mcron-service-type, home-syncthing-service-type, home-dbus-service-type and home-pipewire-service-type. So basically all my user's shepherd services are affected.

Do I misunderstand something or is this the intended behaviour?

Best Regards,
nutcase
