Package: procps
Version: 1:3.3.1-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/top
% top
top: incompatible rcfile, you should delete '/home/madduck/.toprc'
I will not, and in some ways I consider this a release critical bug
report. I have been working with and developing my ~/.toprc file for
many years. Please do not expect me to ditch that work and have to
recreate my settings according to some new, vague changed rc file
format.
When a change like this happens and the previous rc file really
cannot be used anymore (why???), then I would at least expect some
instructions on
a. what actually changed;
b. what is no longer supported;
c. how to migrate my configuration.
Please provide those, either in NEWS.Debian or a dedicated file
— and reference that from the error message.
Thanks,

It was fixed a while ago but missed the changelog due to it being
reopened. I'm running 3.3.7 and top happily took your sample toprc in
the bug report. It looks like there are two windows, one for each CPU
to me.
Going through the git logs, I can see commit[1] which has the toprc fix
and that went into release 3.3.5.
