Thanks to you and Christian for the hints.  I basically took over a
systemd file provided by upstream.  I think the problem itself is
deeper.  I tweaked the cmake file to not download pandoc and nodejs and
used the Debian packaged versions.  Unfortunately it does not seem to be
that simple.  When I started shiny-server with strace it is trying to
access pathes that do not exist in the package and there is obviously no
proper error handling.

I need to track this down later - I would not stop any cmake expert to
have a look thought. ;-)

Kind regards

     Andreas.
