thanks
Hi Thijs,
needrestart did not find any kernel images which triggers this special
bug. There was a divison by zero triggered by calculating the
progressbar length.
needrestart did not die since the linux specific stuff was running in an
eval block. needrestart was not started in verbose mode so it does not
report the error message (divsion by zero) of the eval call.
While dieing in the eval block the stdout/stdin fd's were left screwed
up... resulting in the debconf commands on the tty.
In verbose mode the bug was not triggered since verbose mode disables
the progressbar stuff.
Damn, fixed & sorry,
Thomas

Could you please run needrestart (without -v) again and run `pstree -a`?
There should be debconf's frontend running as the parent process of
needrestart:
| | `-bash
| | `-frontend -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend
/usr/sbin/needrestart
| | `-needrestart /usr/sbin/needrestart

Your /dev/tty is a valid character device?
$ ls -lha /dev/tty
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 Nov 12 21:19 /dev/tty
Yes:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 nov 13 08:12 /dev/tty
Cheers,
Thijs
