Please read Packaging guidelines regarding the Systemd: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Systemd#.25files_section Systemd unit .service files must not be marked as %config files. If the user wants to reconfigure a .service file he should copy the .service file from /lib/systemd/system to /etc/systemd/system and edit it there. Unit files in /etc/systemd/system override those in /lib/systemd/system if they carry the same name. Closing as NOTABUG
