Package: needrestart
Version: 0.3-1
Followup-For: Bug #723935
While you're fixing this debconf template file, would you mind
changing the wording in needrestart/ui-query_pkgs_title?
Currently:
> Description: Daemons using orphaned libraries
But the libraries aren't "orphaned" in either of the senses that the
word is commonly used with in Debian jargon:
https://wiki.debian.org/Glossary#orphan
https://wiki.debian.org/Glossary#orphaned
(To summarise: packages without reverse dependencies, and packages
without maintainers.) And they certainly aren't orphaned in the
literal sense that their mother and father have died.
I would recommend just calling them "outdated"; patch attached.
