it shouldn't - you can't just "parse" it - you have to basically eval it in a full shell, and this is frankly out of fashion. I'm planning on replacing it with something like: user@.service: ... [Service] EnvironmentFile=-/etc/environment EnvironmentFile=-%h/.config/environment ExecStart=/usr/lib/systemd/system --user ... This allows us to set globals in the session properly, and not block for some shell action.
