This bug was fixed in the package procps - 2:3.3.15-2ubuntu1
---------------
procps (2:3.3.15-2ubuntu1) cosmic; urgency=medium
* Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
- debian/sysctl.d (Ubuntu-specific):
+ 10-console-messages.conf: stop low-level kernel messages on console.
+ 10-kernel-hardening.conf: add the kptr_restrict setting
+ 10-keyboard.conf.powerpc: mouse button emulation on PowerPC.
+ 10-ipv6-privacy.conf: add a file to sysctl.d to apply the defaults
for IPv6 privacy extensions for interfaces. (LP: #176125, #841353)
+ 10-link-restrictions.conf: even though the Ubuntu
kernel is built with these defaults in place, we want to make sure
that people running stock kernels don't miss out.
+ 10-magic-sysrq.conf: Disable most magic sysrq by default, allowing
critical sync, remount, reboot functions. (LP: #194676, LP: #1025467)
+ 10-network-security.conf: enable rp_filter.
+ 10-ptrace.conf: describe new PTRACE setting.
+ 10-zeropage.conf: safe mmap_min_addr value for graceful fall-back.
for armhf, and arm64.
+ 10-qemu.conf.s390x for qemu.
+ README: describe how this directory is supposed to work.
- debian/rules: Fix cross build
- ignore_eaccess.patch: If we get eaccess when opening a sysctl file for
writing, don't error out. Otherwise package upgrades can fail,
especially in containers.
- ignore_erofs.patch: Same as ignore_eaccess but for the case where
part of /proc is read/only.

Title:
'service procps start' does nothing; outdated README
Status in procps package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
/etc/sysctl.d/README says
After making any changes, please run "service procps start" (or, from
a Debian package maintainer script "invoke-rc.d procps start").
however running this command does absolutely nothing on Ubuntu 17.04 (and,
presumably, any other Ubuntu version since systemd became the main init
system).
To actually get your changes written into /proc/sys, you have to do
service procps reload
Can you please update the README?
(This is similar to bug 1332362, but I think that one was Upstart's
fault.)
