Package: needrestart
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Control: affects -1 apt
needrestart currently wastes time each time we spawn dpkg to monitor
for unpacks. It should instead use Dpkg::Pre-Invoke and
DPkg::Post-Invoke and analyse the state difference like etckeeper
does.
You can check both which things were installed, as well as whether
there is a package in an erronous state this way, which also ends up
being more correct - just because dpkg produced an error does not
necessarily mean the outcome is an error.
The dpkg hook causes test suite failures in apt when needrestart is
installed, as it can't write to /run/needrestart (please don't ask me
why). Yes, I guess we can work around dpkg hooks writing in the middle
of our scripts, but this is really all madness.
