checkrestart is still broken; it never outputs anything. I don't know
if this is due to a bug in checkrestart or lsof, or changes in Linux;
presumably any such exposed changes are intentional.
It is my understanding that the useful output would be:
old versions of files included in some [installed] package, which
are opened by some process
And it might be interesting to allow restricting that output to
processes the executable pathname of which are also included in some
[installed] package.
lsof 4.76.dfsg.1-1 under Linux 2.6.15 doesn't show any shared libs in
its sudo +L1 output, even though it shows up in sudo lsof with an
"inode" thingy:
xterm 29554 pryzbyj mem REG 3,1 208206
/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.8 (path inode=206383)
No link count is shown count for that process for that library ("not
shown", not "0".)
Also, this check seems to defeat all output:
def needsRestart(self):
for f in self.files:
if f.endswith('.dpkg-new'):
return 1
return 0
Perhaps dpkg behaviour changed? This check seems to imply that files
being replaced are (not intuitively) renamed to .dpkg-new, before
being removed.
