needrestart uses dpkg's status logger hook to detect package
installation failures. Happens the false detected dpkg error every time?
Could you try to make the status logger verbose:
$ diff -u ex/apt/needrestart-dpkg_d /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/needrestart
--- ex/apt/needrestart-dpkg_d 2014-01-02 19:52:13.000000000 +0100
+++ /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/needrestart 2015-05-01 23:18:39.580908062 +0200
@@ -4,4 +4,4 @@
# triggers needrestart in apt's Dpkg::Post-Invoke
# hook.
-status-logger=(test -x /usr/lib/needrestart/dpkg-status &&
/usr/lib/needrestart/dpkg-status || cat > /dev/null)
+status-logger=(test -x /usr/lib/needrestart/dpkg-status && /bin/sh -x
/usr/lib/needrestart/dpkg-status || cat > /dev/null)
and attach the complete output?
TIA,
Thomas
