Bug#460665: sysctl.conf: bad suggestion in sysctl.conf

[Greg Kochanski]

Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.7-5
Severity: minor
File: sysctl.conf

Sysctl.conf suggests that net.ipv4.ip_always_defrag should sometimes
be set. Uh unh. It's not recognized by sysctl.

$ sudo vi /etc/sysctl.confs
$ sudo sysctl -p
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.secure_redirects = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1
error: "net.ipv4.ip_always_defrag" is an unknown key
net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 1

Hmm, so it's not. I'll delete it from the next upload. Thanks for
pointing this out.
