Package: needrestart
Severity: normal

Hi,

needrestart tries to send mail to system accounts like
Debian-console-log. It should not do so since not all system accounts
do have their mail re-routed to root and root usually knows which
services to restart.

system accounts can be detected as such by looking at their numerical
UID.

Greetings
Marc
