Just to reiterate, I'm only marking procps as 'wontfix' because the sysctl service used in all current releases comes from systemd, *not* the procps package, so there is nothing to 'fix' in the procps package.
Also, before people get upset, I've only marked this as Wishlist because the sysctl.d docs clearly explain this is a known issue with clearly documented ways to work around it. That doesn't mean i don't think this should be fixed; I absolutely do agree it should be fixed to properly apply all sysctl settings at boot, including for loadable modules loaded after boot. That will require upstream systemd work to implement, however, before backporting into Ubuntu.
