Package: libvirt-daemon-system Version: 1.2.7-5 Severity: important Hi,
If I'm not wrong, virtlockd is currently restarted on upgrade. Looking at the virtlockd(8) manpage, it seems that's a bad idea and it looks better to ask the daemon to reload itself instead. This daemon is not used directly by libvirt client applications, rather it is called on their behalf by libvirtd. By maintaining the locks in a standalone daemon, the main libvirtd daemon can be restarted without risk of losing locks. The virtlockd daemon has the ability to re-exec() itself upon receiving SIGUSR1, to allow live upgrades without downtime. Unfortunately, ATM there is no debhelper tool allowing to do that, so it's maybe better to not restart it at all until this is fixed.
