See comment 4 and 5 here: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=984220> BTW, how does one override the ExecStart= line in a service file without creating one in /etc/systemd/system/? I was trying it because of the above change and finally gave up and moved my configuration to the default location. I was trying to override it by putting my service file in /etc/systemd/system/<unit>.service.d/myfile.conf (<unit> is transmission-daemon of course). Simply repeating the line does not work. Systemd refuses by saying cannot have multiple ExecStart= lines. Then I came across the following syntax in a bug report (forgot the number): ExecStart= ExecStart=<new_command> But using that in my conf file doesn't seem to work either. Actually now I'm thinking maybe the service file worked, but transmission failed because without the fix in 2.80-2. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
