This bug needs to get fixed. I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (on a VPS) and noticed various package installs are failing (apt-get -V install ...)
The error is connected with this procps bug. (1) procps fails to start: # service start procps start: Job failed to start (2) if I manually try to start it, I get an error: cat /etc/sysctl.d/*.conf /etc/sysctl.conf | sysctl -e -p - kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7 net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr = 2 net.ipv6.conf.default.use_tempaddr = 2 error: permission denied on key 'kernel.kptr_restrict' net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1 net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1 vm.mmap_min_addr = 65536 I don't know how to resolve this error. Are they any workarounds? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157643 Title: procps fail to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/procps/+bug/1157643/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
