service file used for debugging
After installing lm_sensors package, I discovered that lm_sensors.service
wasn't picking up its environment variables from its EnvironmentFile=
directive.
After some experimenting, I found that only the last environment variable
defined in the environment file was non-blank.
I found that the only way to ensure that all variables are set is to remove all
comments (preceded by '#') from the environment file.
As I'm not entirely sure what exactly in those comments is confusing systemd,
I'm including a failing and a working environment file, as well as the service
file I used for debugging.</pre>
