All default values from sysctl.conf which are active are also the kernel default so no need to ship this file anymore.
Great.
I've just pushed procps-ng-3.3.8-3 to [testing]. It does not ship /etc/sysctl.conf anymore and post_upgrade() prints a message informing the user of the new location where their changes should go.
Note that this also renames the original file to /etc/sysctl.conf.pacsave. Anyway, we should still come up with a short news item; shouldn't hurt us and probably saves people some trouble. Also adding a line about the rationale of this upstream change would be nice. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://pierre-schmitz.com
