ConditionPathIsSymbolicLink = Verifies whether a certain path exists and is a symbolic link.
When there is an exclamation mark ("!"), the validation is negated

For "ConditionPathIsSymbolicLink=!/tmp" the unit is making sure /tmp doesn't exist and is not a symbolink link, if it exist and is a symbolic link like then it will fail and create the actual situation.
