Yep. it is u-n-c that does the real work. update-notifier-kde is just notifying the user. u-n-c is also touching a set of files at the end of each apt run, and u-n-kde is basically listening on changes to these files. u-n-c also is creating a file when a new kernel is installed, thru the /etc/kernel/postinst.d/update-notifier file. This file basically creates a stamp file: /var/run/reboot-required u-n-kde listens also to the creation of this file, and notifies the user that a reboot is required. (your descriptions of how apt and update-notifier-common interacted are correct) /Sune -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
