retitle 1142874 handle/document frr restarts on package upgrades
tag 1142874 - upstream
thanks
Hi,
I've added a note to the github issue about adding some changes to the
frr package in debian to account for this sort of problem.

Should installing a new version of frr force a restart? Or produce a
big warning message?
Generally, processes should be automatically reloaded unless there's a
reason not to, which is the case with frr as this can break essential
network services of a whole infrastructure.
I'll check if there's anything that we can do gracefully here, if not
then at least I'll add some notes and some debconf prompts so users are
aware of this.
Regards,
Daniel
