I would like to have the a service (specifically the tor service) listed
in my config.scm and configured using `guix system reconfigure
config.scm'. But, I do not want the service to start up at boot time. I
want to start/stop it using `herd' later as and when I require it. How
do I achieve this?

Thanks!
