ExecStart line in systemd service files.

Hello all,

I'm in the process of packaking kwakd for Fedora.  On the user list
Rahul Sundaram mentioned that the service file should not use a
hardcoded path to the binary.

Previously the ExecStart line read like this:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/kwakd -p 80 

After speaking to upstream and passing on Rahul's comments upstream
changed it to this:

ExecStart=kwakd -p 80  

However when using the service file with the above line kwakd fails to
start.  I've had a quick look at some already installed service files
and they all seem to include the full path to the binary.

Can someone tell me what the correct line should be taking into account
Rahul's comment?

thanks,

Ananda
