Thx, I didn't know needrestart until today, but learned about in in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770135 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823987. But regardless of using needrestart or finding grepping them from the output of lsof, it seems systemd has problems with it or dbus being restarted. The bug is obviously nearly 6 years old but hasn't been fixed yet. I have spent much time today restarting dbus, ssh, and/or several systemd services in different order. Also systemctl daemon-reexec. Nothing seems to help and it seems systemd bugs again force me to reboot. But I am currently 700 km away from my server for the next 1.5 weeks and noone else has access to it. So I'd prefer not to risk it. urs
