downloadguix-0c5d0c57d370b34f3ba677838deaa8baf7bca58a.tar.gz
services: mpd: Do not eagerly look for a user.
Running 'guix system search mpd' would throw a backtrace because the
mpd-shepherd-service service start Gexp contained an unquoted call to
'getpwnam', which would look for a missing 'mpd' user and fail.

* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-shepherd-service): gexp-unquote only the
relevant variable rather than the whole expression.
