Hi,

or else a drop-in file by a package renders your wanted memlock value
in /etc/security/limits.conf useless. The directory
/etc/security/limits.d/ is known to be the cause of a lot of very evil
issues, since you can't rely on your /etc/security/limits.conf. After
each update or each new installed package you need to verify that
no file was added to /etc/security/limits.d/.

Regards,
Ralf
