I use this on a daily basis. Any time I restart something and check again with 'tracer' it notices and doesn't flag the service or app. I suspect a documentation bug. It doesn't seem to me that it's checking against boot time but against the last time the service or app was updated, which makes more sense.Yes, but why would it suggest restarting an applications that are possibly not actually running, as the command shows akonadi wasn't running, so why produce a message that it needs restarting?No idea. I haven't seen that myself. Possibly Akonadi was running when tracer checked, but then stopped for some reason, but I don't know.Just on that front and slightly off topic to this question, I've had tracer tell me I need to manually restart Plasma Shell, how does one actually do that without rebooting the system or without the restart of that forcing a reboot?You can just log out and in again. A reboot is not necessary and restarting plasmashell will not trigger it. Alternatively: $ systemctl restart --user plasma-plasmashell
Thanks Patrick, I had no idea what constituted Plasma Shell. Is it actually a user space service, I would have thought is would be global with potentially configuration options in system-settings to configure it on a user by user basis, but then having said that I don't remember seeing any options for that, although they could be there and I haven't understood the significance of what I am seeing.
regards, Steve
