Description:

The rc script for memcached would load parameters from /etc/conf.d/memcached. The systemd unit file, however, simply passes -l 127.0.0.1 to the server. This can cause problems for people upgrading from initscripts to systemd and expecting to get the same behavior out of memcached.

I have attached a patch for the memcached.service file that allows a user to specify options in /etc/conf.d/memcached. This will prevent failures when users of initscripts upgrade to systemd and use systemd to launch their memcached server.

Users who define a user in /etc/conf.d/memcached will still need to override the unit file, as systemd does not allow variables to be used with the User parameter.

Reason for closing:  Won't fix
Additional comments about closing:  Done on purpose and by design, systemd is a break from the old conf file setups.
