Package: proftpd-basic
Version: 1.3.5-1.1+deb8u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I included a whole config directory in proftpd.conf: include /etc/proftpd/conf.d/
I created an new config-file example.conf in /etc/proftpd/conf.d/ and edited it multiple times.
Restarting proftpt failed.

Using "systemctl status proftpd.service" the following error occured:
AuthOrder has already been configured on line 8 of '/etc/proftpd/conf.d/example.conf~'

Removing the ~-file "example.conf~" fixed the problem.
But I think it's usual not to include ~-files.
