<para>Various settings are allowed to be specified
more than once, in which case the interpretation
depends on the setting. Often, multiple settings form
a list, and setting to an empty value "resets", which
means that previous assignments are ignored. When this
is allowed, it is mentioned in the description of the

same value makes the unit file incompatible with
parsers for the XDG <filename>.desktop</filename> file
format.</para>
