--- Comment #7 from Scott Ritchie scott@open-vote.org 2009-11-05 05:00:52 --- Some background: the Wine package was using the /etc/sysctl.d/ conf file before there even was a standard for how to name them. After that happened I renamed the file in the package to 30-wine.conf, however I never got around to adding code that would properly move the existing conf file. Since the package manager leaves old conf files around rather than deleting them, the end result is that you probably have two wine files in there, one properly named and one not.
The recent brouhaha about /etc/sysctl.d/ has prompted me to finally update the code and remove the old conf file properly - it should be coming as a stable release update for Ubuntu.
