Package: needrestart Version: 2.8-1 Severity: wishlist Currently needrestart returns CRITICAL if any service needs restart, even if they are included in override_rc. The following example just have the already listed dbus.
| # needrestart -n -r l | Scanning processes... | Scanning candidates... | Scanning linux images... | Running kernel seems to be up-to-date. | Services to be restarted: | systemctl restart dbus.service | No containers need to be restarted. | No user sessions are running outdated binaries. | | # needrestart -p | CRIT - Kernel: 3.16.0-4-amd64, Services: 1 (!), Containers: none, Sessions: none|Kernel=0;0;;0;2 Services=1;;0;0 Containers=0;;0;0 Sessions=0;0;;0 Please reduce the severity to WARNING in this cases, as such services should not be restarted and the message usualy gets ignored.
