This service file is meant to be used alongisde the uwsgi-app at .socket 
(no [Install] section in the service file)

Well, the first part /usr/share/doc/uwsgi-core/README.Debian can be 
dropped :)

The rest seems to be a incomplete copy of uWSGI doc [1]. The missing 
part being the need for the creation of a specific user

My use case is a searxng instance, using the default conf [2]. Haven't 
been able to restart it yet but this is irrelevant.
