Package: needrestart
Version: 3.5-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when running needrestart it always suggest that sddm needs to be restarted,
even when sddm ist fresly (re-)started and no update has taken place.

Running needrestart -v gives the following explanation:

...
[main] #1244357 uses deleted /memfd:JITCode:QtQml
[main] #1244357 is a child of #1244355
[main] #1244355 exe => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sddm/sddm-helper
...

It looks like the JIT compiled Qt code erroneously triggers the detection.
Adding "qr(^/memfd:JITCode:QtQml)," to the blacklist_mappings silences this
warning. Would you consider to add this exception to the needrestart package?

Regards

Michail Bachmann
