I don't think procps should return an error when one of the sysctl.d/
files contains incorrect data.

Printing the error would be useful especially if the exact file and
value is mentioned, otherwise saying "oh, we failed" when in fact only
one attribute failed to load is cumbersome.

Just because iscsitarget package upgrade failed to remove it's sysctl.d
config file is not fair to let other packages fail upgrade because of
dependency on procps which did not start but otherwise did NOT affect it
in any way (munin, for example, failed to be configured by apt-get dist-
upgrade because of that)

Don't know if this is the proper place to address this comment to
package authors, so if any of you reading this consider I've written in
the wrong place please direct me to the correct site/link!
