if I understand aright the problem is that how-can-i-help just put it's
output directly on the tty (not using debconf magic or a pager). Which
debconf frontend are you using?
It sounds like a general problem with any hook script running after
hcih's hook. I'd put needrestart in the 99th row as there might be other
hooks restarting binaries - although I didn't check if there are any.
We could change the hook naming in needrestart, but depending on other's
package hook names sounds fragile to me. A more generic solution might
be changing hcih's hook name to be almost the last called hook
(z9how-can-i-help?) or use the debconf frontend (although this requires
user interaction to proceed).
HTH,
Thomas
