[Bug 1908241] Re: README.sysctl refers to "service procps reload", which no longer works

[Balint Reczey]

Forwarded the fix to Debian:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/procps/-/merge_requests/2

It is not a good time to apply it in 21.04, because we are close to the
release.

Title:
  README.sysctl refers to "service procps reload", which no longer works

Status in procps package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  /etc/sysctl.d/README.sysctl states:

  After making any changes, please run "service procps reload" (or, from
  a Debian package maintainer script "deb-systemd-invoke restart procps.service").

  However, "service procps reload" no longer works:

  $ sudo service procps reload
  Usage: /etc/init.d/procps {start|stop|status|restart|try-restart|force-reload}

  It looks like the correct command should be "service procps force-
  reload"?

  
  Local versions:

  Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
  procps 2:3.3.16-1ubuntu2
