[...] So, I'm reassigning the bug to debian-goodies, which provides the checkrestart utility. I think that checkrestart should have a special test for dbus, and say that dbus is affected and a reboot may be needed. BTW, "service kerneloops restart" also fails to restart, so that there may be something similar for it. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
