Hi Timo,


upstream has been patched so networking should not be restarted automaticly any more.


Regards,
Thomas

Dear Maintainer,

please consider blacklisting networking.service in needrestart.conf similar to 
NetworkManager or other networking related services.

After the upgrade to the stable point release 9.8 which included updates to 
libc, I noticed a lot of services failed on my network gateway which runs 
Debian.

After the package upgrades needrestart issued a restart of the following 
services:
 Restarting services...
  /etc/needrestart/restart.d/systemd-manager
  systemctl restart arpwatch.service chrony.service cron.service 
haveged.service networking.service rsyslog.service serial-getty@ttyS0.service 
smartd.service ssh.service systemd-udevd.service unbound.service

Quite a few of these services failed to restart however, since they rely on 
network interfaces which were down due to the restart of networking.service. 
SSHD, for example, logged this:
 sshd: error: Bind to port 22 on 172.16.2.1 failed: Cannot assign requested 
address.
 sshd: fatal: Cannot bind any address.

Other networking related services such as unbound, dhcpcd and arpwatch failed 
at the same time.

Therefore, I suggest to blacklist networking.service.


Thanks!
