Package: needrestart Version: 0.9-1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
Needrestart sports a progress indicator in debconf while it tries to find services that need a restart. However, this scanning for services is most of the time very fast and the full repainting of the screen actually costs more time than the scanning does. When an upgrade has no impact on running services, it results in needless 'flashing' of the screen. I would recommend to only output "Scanning processes..." on stdout and load and invoke the whole debconf infrastructure only when there's actual prompting to be done. Cheers, Thijs -- Package-specific info: needrestart output: Scanning processes No services required to be restarted. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.13.7 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages needrestart depends on: ii libmodule-find-perl 0.12-1 ii libmodule-scandeps-perl 1.13-1 ii libproc-processtable-perl 0.50-1 ii libsort-naturally-perl 1.02-1 ii perl 5.18.2-4 needrestart recommends no packages. needrestart suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
