We had a similar upgrade issue with libc6. Currently there are two environment variables that may be interessting: RELEASE_UPGRADE_IN_PROGRESS=1 RELEASE_UPGRADE_MODE={desktop,server}
The libc6.preinst looks like this: ... db_subst glibc/upgrade services $services if [ "$RELEASE_UPGRADE_MODE" = desktop ]; then db_input medium glibc/upgrade || true else db_input critical glibc/upgrade || true fi ... We can probably use a similar solution. If the default is to restart, we need to be careful that nothing on the desktop breaks due to the restart. -- libssl0.9.8 config asking me 'which services should be restarted to make them use the new lbraries?' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/91814 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
