Description Randy Witt 2016-01-06 19:01:42 UTC 
Using committish 2cd061a29a94fdcdfec86732e6bcbb71c12c4afc and running the systemd tests using "-c testimage" I saw the failure below 67 times out of ~4700 runs.

Comment 1 Benjamin Esquivel 2016-01-07 15:58:22 UTC 
Is it possible for you to attach the full log of the testing? I want to see the original string it is trying to parse. This is a very interesting case

I don't have them anymore.(I'm not sure why I deleted them) I'll try to reproduce.

Full testimage log as requested.
Comment 4 Benjamin Esquivel 2016-02-01 06:24:44 UTC 
the first approach will be to add a try statement to catch this exception and handle properly.

Hey Francisco, you took this bug as yours when you should have only taken the verification of it. Saludos.
