I also have a 99-systcl.conf which is a copy of the former /etc/sysctl.conf

When you are going to replace a file provided by a package, check if it is a configuration file at first (e.g. dpkg -s). Despite most of files in /etc/ are marked as configuration files, some are not.

I juste renamed it. But in my view it is a bug to remove something else than the symlink even with the same name

On the other hand it makes recovery after a fault easier. Dpkg does not track types of files, have a look into /var/lib/dpkg/info/systemd.list
