To be clear, in postinst I have: start procps and in postrm, on purge, I have: start procps
This means that the /etc/sysctl.d tree gets applied after install (that's probably ok) and reapplied after purge which is a problem in two ways: - settings are still applied while the package isn't purged (but only removed); I think that's acceptable, even if not perfect - settings which were overriden by qemu-kvm-extra-static's /etc/sysctl.d/ config will only be reset if another file in /etc/sysctl.d also sets them; this is true for mmap minaddr for instance, but perhaps not for other settings such as vm.vdso_enabled on i386. -- qemu-kvm-extras-static sysctl.d settings remain active when package is removed but not purged https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/515706 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
