Apparently, files in /usr/lib/sysctl.d are usually prefixed with numbers for easier ordering. Let's be consistent with this. I chose 60 for libvirtd so that it goes after 50-default.conf. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1084876 Signed-off-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar(a)redhat.com&gt; --- Notes: Actually, %config(noreplace) for a file in /usr/lib/sysctl.d looks somewhat wrong to me and I think we should fix that too. After all the files are usually placed in /usr/lib because they are not supposed to be modified by administrators. They should be able to override the settings in /etc/.
