Seems procs init script is not called at the right moment. We need to investigate.

This problem is present on Elwing, and perhaps on other hosts (not checked yet).

Could be related to #507788, isn't it? However, as stated by /usr/share/doc/procps/README.Debian, it should only affect custom kernels, was there a custom on elwing before?

Elwing is using a standard Debian kernel. Maybe we should check the ordering choosen by insserv ?

Well, if it's using a Debian kernel, then ipv6 is compiled into the kernel, and not as a module, therefore this issue should not happen with or without insserv. Do you still have the issue? Is it reproducible somewhere else?
