--- Begin Message ---Package: systemd Version: 204-5 Severity: minor Reading systemd.service(5), I'm confused about the exact syntax and quoting for the "ExecStart=" directive. AFAICT from reading systemd.unit(5), the values in the unit file general syntax are whatever comes after the =, and it is up to the particular directive to specify the interpretation of the RHS. ExecStart talks about multiple commands being separated by semicolons. It also talks about "the first argument" but it doesn't specify how arguments are split. It tells us that shell syntax is not used. But it provides this example: ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'dmesg | tac' If that example is correct, something nontrivial must be going on. I think it should be documented. Thanks, Ian.

It seems that you have provided the right information. That commit is part of version 208, thus marking the bug fixed. Saludos
