Package: procps Version: 2:4.0.4-9 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, I'm unsure if this is upstream problem or not, however after updating to Debian 13 (trixie) I've faced some problems with my configuration and the culprit was the removal of the /etc/sysctl.conf (and options that I've set there some time ago). While I understand and welcome the move to /etc/sysctl.d/*.conf files I must say that a warning would be nice, either during package installation or in "Issues to be aware" in the release notes as the file seems to be silently removed without any message. If the warning is there then it should be made more visible because I've made two upgrades but seen zero warnings about this change. Probably even better solution would be moving the file into /etc/sysctl.d (with notification) at the lowest priority, however I can see how this will be rejected. Thank you in advance and sorry if I filed it wrong (maybe it should've gone to some release note suggestions?) -- System Information: Debian Release: 13.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.12.38+deb13-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages procps depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.68 ii libc6 2.41-12 ii libncursesw6 6.5+20250216-2 ii libproc2-0 2:4.0.4-9 ii libsystemd0 257.7-1 ii libtinfo6 6.5+20250216-2 Versions of packages procps recommends: ii linux-sysctl-defaults 4.12 ii psmisc 23.7-2 procps suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
