Package: grep
Version: 2.10-1
Severity: minor
Hi,
I just noticed that dmesg reported the following:
[ 3385.178033] process `grep' is using deprecated sysctl (syscall)
net.ipv6.neigh.default.retrans_time; Use net.ipv6.neigh.default.retrans_time_ms
instead.
I didn't notice any negative impact but I'm not using IPv6 either (and
I'm not sure either what grep has to do with network, but that's another
story...).
Cheers, Eric

Followup-For: Bug #657714
I don't think grep caused those messages, but some script running on
your system, maybe reading /proc/sys/net/ipv6/neigh/default/retrans_time .
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00136.html
has another examples.
So I'm closing this bug. Fell free to reopen it if you can reproduce it
again and you see it's due to grep.
