To expand on Marc's example, let's say /lib/systemd/system/foo.service contains: [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/foo And /etc/systemd/system/foo.service.d/custom-option.conf contains: [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/foo --custom-option Later on, /lib/systemd/system/foo.service is updated to contain: [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/foo --disable-unauthenticated-remote-admin-feature The user will only notice this change and copy it into their own local override if they use apt-listchanges, or periodically run systemd-delta. -- Sam Morris https://robots.org.uk/ PGP key dsa1024/5EA01078 3412 EA18 1277 354B 991B C869 B219 7FDB 5EA0 1078
