Title:
  ProtectHome setting in debian/rsyslog.service isn't understood by
  systemd

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Small bug introduced in commit e175f5c3668adc1c65f66efb61f70060569c9fe8
  https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/commit/?id=e175f5c3668adc1c65f66efb61f70060569c9fe8

  which changed the rsyslog.service line of

  ProtectHome=yes to ProtectHome=readonly

  
  Systemd doesn't understand "readonly" https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemd.exec.html

  and will mention in its journal:

  systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service:24: Failed to parse
  protect home value, ignoring: readonly

  Quickfix: just needs a hyphen on line 24 to read 'read-only'
