Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.5-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

One of the recent updates to procps apparently over-wrote the
/etc/sysctl.conf file (I believe without prompting).  For users with a
Macintosh system (with one mouse button), this file is a common place
to put directives to emulate the middle and right mouse buttons with
keyboard buttons.  The WindowMaker window manager uses the right mouse
button to invoke the top-level menu system; having the right mouse
button cease to exist renders this combination (Window Make plus Mac
hardware) unusable.
