--- Begin Message ---Package: procps Version: 1:3.3.9-1 Severity: normal Since 698888 was fixed, to use sysctl --system, a bug in sysctl makes it that no settings in /etc/sysctl.conf are loaded. Function PreloadSystem() has this near the end: if (stat(DEFAULT_PRELOAD, &ts) < 0 && S_ISREG(ts.st_mode)) { if (!Quiet) printf(_("* Applying %s ...\n"), DEFAULT_PRELOAD); rc |= Preload(DEFAULT_PRELOAD); } The first comparison is backwards. This could be grave if admins rely on settings in /etc/sysctl.conf for security-related issues. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages procps depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-43 ii libc6 2.17-97 ii libncurses5 5.9+20130608-1 ii libncursesw5 5.9+20130608-1 ii libprocps3 1:3.3.9-1 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20130608-1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian12 Versions of packages procps recommends: ii psmisc 22.20-1 procps suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/sysctl.conf changed [not included]
