Well, the subject says it all: I had masked a socket unit and the related non-socket-unit failed to start. Trying to see the definition of the unit with "systemctl cat" I only saw "# /dev/null". Is that intended? "systemctl show" still shows a lot of data... My idea was when "unmask" knows how to get the unit, why shouldn't "cat" be able to, too?
