the reproducer is in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1226509#c3 just a few lines 
of a systemd-unit

dunno if this affects v221 and v222 too - Fedora user
but it is very likely since it exists from v216 to v219

why not just dig in the code and remove that completly useless "file 
exists" check instead be happy that the folder is already there?
