Hi,

Quote from man service:

BusName= Takes a D-Bus bus name that this service is reachable as.
This option is mandatory for services where Type= is set to dbus, but
its use is otherwise recommended if the process takes a name on the
D-Bus bus.

Why it is recommended?

If you have Type=simple and BusName= then you are getting a warning:

systemd[1]: umut.service has a D-Bus service name specified, but is
not of type dbus. Ignoring.

Should we fix the man page or fix the warning?

Umut
