I fully agree, which is why I wrote "seems", and then filed a separate bugreport. Sorry, I don't know the details of piuparts the tool nor piupart.debian.net the service. That's why my separate bugreport was filed against either of needrestart or piuparts. > > has more details - an interesting part is this extracted when > > piuparts hangs: > > > > 30803 root 30 10 117M 63804 9816 T 0.0 0.2 0:11.84 │ │ > > └─ /usr/bin/python /srv/piuparts/sbin/piuparts --skip-logrotatefiles-test > > --warn-on-others --no-eatmydata --scriptsdir /etc/piuparts/script > > 29515 root 30 10 84340 46992 32864 T 0.0 0.1 0:00.67 │ │ > > └─ apt-get -y install design-desktop=3.0.4 > > 30238 root 30 10 84340 14128 0 T 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 │ │ > > └─ apt-get -y install design-desktop=3.0.4 > > 30240 root 30 10 4288 752 676 T 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 │ │ > > └─ sh -c test -x /usr/lib/needrestart/apt-pinvoke && > > /usr/lib/needrestart/apt-pinvoke || true > > 30241 root 30 10 55276 14444 4324 T 0.0 0.0 0:00.23 │ │ > > └─ /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend > > /usr/sbin/needrestart > > 30331 root 30 10 50124 17516 4148 T 0.0 0.1 0:00.40 │ │ > > └─ /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/needrestart > > 2846 root 30 10 4288 740 668 T 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 │ │ > > ├─ sh -c resize 2>/dev/null > > 2847 root 30 10 4188 704 632 T 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 │ │ > > │ └─ resize > > 2838 root 30 10 0 0 0 Z 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 │ │ > > └─ 90-none > > Maybe it is just a debconf frontend issue?

This would imply that either piuparts fail to setup policy-rc.d appropriately, or that needrestart ignores policy-rc.d. The latter is a Policy violation. > - the debconf pipe gets weirrd (consolation) I suspect this to be irrelevant in scenarios involving policy-rc.d. > - needrestart and debconf thinks you call them interactive... but they > are called non-interactive. As a result they wait forever for > interaction. Agreed. From my brief conversations with the piuparts developers I am of the impression that piuparts a) makes use of policy-rc.d and b) tells debconf that interaction is non-interactive, c) has a quite big track record to support a) and b), d) have rarely if ever tested needrestart being pulled in as a dependency due to very few packages depending on it at all. Therefore I suggest to double-check and/or share your opinion here on whether needrestart respects policy-rc.d and doesn't do funny things with debconf. > Feel free to open a new bug to needrestart to track down this issue. Thanks for the suggestion. I am not familiar with piupart I will likely not do so, but welcome others to pick up where I left. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
