Bug#799324: systemd: Instance variable %i not available for RuntimeDirectory

[Michael Gebetsroither]

Package: systemd
Version: 215-17+deb8u2
Severity: normal

Hi,

We are trying to run multiple instances of a daemon where we'd need a
RuntimeDirectory per instance.
But having RuntimeDirectory=foo_%i creates /run/foo_%i as directory.
It would be awesome to have specifiers also expanded in
RuntimeDirectory.

I also added a patch to the current upstream bug report.

(sorry, i currently can't test the patch, not even compile-tested!)
