Package: reportbug
Version: 13.0.1
Severity: minor
When I want to report a bug for procps, I get in the generated e-mail
template:
[...]
-- Configuration Files:
/etc/sysctl.conf [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/sysctl.conf'
[...]
But /etc/sysctl.conf is no longer a configuration file:
procps (2:4.0.4-5) unstable; urgency=medium
[...]
* Remove /etc/sysctl.conf as using /etc/sysctl.d/*.conf is better

I'm assuming the actual problem was in procps, bug #1076352, which has
been fixed in the meantime. Closing this bug accordingly.
You can check with `dpkg --status procps` if /etc/sysctl.conf is still
listed as a conffile. This is how reportbug finds the list of
configuration files.
