Services in override_rc are not less critical than those not beeing
listed. Services in override_rc are known to break something - like
restarting NetworkManager interrupts the network connection.

With needrestart 2.9 it will be possible to configure the status value
for services (and kernel, containers, sessions).

If you use the CLI options '-c' to use alternative config files it would
be possible to build individual nagios services. Use the following
config snippet to build a service check which ignores the services in
override_rc completley:

$nrconf{blacklist_rc} = $nrconf{override_rc};


HTH,
Thomas
