Hello,
Shouldn't /etc/malloc.conf be excluded by default, it's a base OS feature which has its purpose if it has been configured. It's not some random file which shouldn't be there.
What do you think?

I am wondering if it wouldn't even be better to have it in /etc/changelist
I have sent a mail to misc@ about that

Theo is completely against adding malloc.conf in changelist

I have discussion about this file with another people. We think that this file should be explicitly added in /etc/sysclean.ignore.

If you need such configuration, which affect malloc(3) system-wise, you will create such file. No tool will create it automatically for you. So if you want sysclean to not report it, you should add it in ignore file.

Thanks.
