- /var/run on distros with systemd is a symlink to /run , hence the
path changes.
- Remove unnecessary runtime dependency on `/bin/kill` which is
provided by `procps` and might not be available on minimal installs
(e.g. containers). Instead use `/bin/sh` which has a built-in `kill`.
- `PrivateDevices=yes` causes i2pd to fail to start on latest Debian
unstable. Service exits with the following:
```
i2pd.service: Failed to execute command: Operation not permitted
i2pd.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/sbin/i2pd: Operation not permitted
i2pd.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=203/EXEC
i2pd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Failed to start I2P Router written in C++.
```
According to `man systemd.exec` exit code 203 corresponds to the
`execve(2)` system call failing. So it looks like i2pd tries to do
something it shouldn't be doing. The proper fix would be in i2pd, but
who knows how long that would actually take, so to allow people to
actually launch i2pd in meanwhile the line has been removed from the
service file.
Also, surprisingly, right after installing i2pd it started without any
problems, and only after restarting the box i2pd started to fail for no
apparent reason.
Create /var/log/i2pd through LogsDirectory parameter of systemd and set
its permission to 0700 through LogsDirectoryMode. Indeed, this directory
must be created with the correct permission as it is used in ExecStart
command

Not working pre-create pid-file dir (/run/i2pd).
It fixed with one of this ways:
> PermissionsStartOnly=True
or
> ExecStartPre=/bin/mkdir -p -m 0700 /var/run/i2pd
> ExecStartPre=/bin/chown i2pd: /var/run/i2pd
First way is prefer because RuntimeDirectory's options already used.
