Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.5-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

recently, the netbase package has begun to complain if the deprecated
file /etc/network/options is still being used. The suggested migration
way is to use /etc/sysctl.conf with appropriate entries.

The /e/n/o option "spoofprotect" echos 1 into
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter, which prompts a sysctl.conf entry
of net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter=1.

sysctl.conf doesn't grok this and complains about an invalid key.

To ease the transition from /e/n/o to sysctl.conf, sysctl should be
able to expand the wildcard.

Greetings
Marc
