** Summary changed:
- Do not restart keepalived on unattended-upgrades
+ [SRU] Do not restart keepalived on unattended-upgrades
** Changed in: needrestart (Ubuntu)
Assignee: (unassigned) => Pragyansh Chaturvedi (r41k0u)
** Description changed:
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ * keepalived.service should not be automatically restarted after an
+ update as other services which depend on it might get disrupted.
+
+ * This change adds a regex pattern for keepalived.service in the default
+ needrestart.conf to prevent it's automatic restart.
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ * Install keepalived
+
+ * Create /etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf and add some sample text in it
+ after ! (essentially a comment)
+
+ * Enable and start keepalived using systemctl (it might get stuck while
+ starting, just interrupt it using Ctrl-C)
+
+ * Then run `sudo apt reinstall libc6`
+
+ * keepalived.service will appear under `Restarting services...`, while it
+ should actually appear under `Service restarts being deferred:`
+
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+
+ * If another service using /usr/sbin/keepalived gets restarted, this problem
+ might reoccur.
+
+ [ Other Info ]
+
+ * Original bug report:
+ ```
unattended-upgrades has restarted keepalived (noble,now 1:2.2.8-1build2
amd64) due to the update of library libglib2.0-0t64.
It is not excluded in /etc/needrestart/needrestart.conf, like other services
(OpenVPN, frr).
Please add an entry so keepalived is not restarted automatically by
unattended-upgrades.
+ ```
