[Bug 1249542] Re: package procps 1:3.2.8-11ubuntu6.2 failed to install/upgrade: le sous-processus script post-installation installé a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 1

[Peter Cordes]

You can't put comments on the same line as an entry.  sysctl writes "10
# el valor original es 60, pero no existía en el archivo original" to
/proc/sys/vm/swappiness and gets an error.

 It actually takes it two write(2) system calls to write the whole
string.  The kernel reads the first 3 characters, which is "10 ", then
sysctl has to try again to write the trailing invalid value stuff.
Maybe sysctl could use this to detect cases where people have trailing
stuff on config lines?
