entries from a setting that is parsed as a list (and is not a
dependency), such as <varname>ConditionPathExists=</varname> (or
e.g. <varname>ExecStart=</varname> in service units), one needs

cannot be reset to an empty list, so dependencies can only be
added in drop-ins. If you want to remove dependencies, you have
to override the entire unit.</para>
