Package: needrestart Version: 3.3-1 Severity: normal Hi,
needrestart lists both gdm and gdm3 when proposing the services to restart gdm3.service is a symlink to gdm.service to mask the gdm3 initscript. So it seems that needrestart gets confused by these symlinks To sumary: initscript: /etc/init.d/gdm3 gdm3.service -> gdm.servce to mask the initscript gdm.service is the real .service file for systemd -- Package-specific info: needrestart output: Your outdated processes: at-spi2-registr[1858], dbus-daemon[1796, 1854], deja-dup-monito[2106], dropbox[2165], evolution-addre[2338, 2275], evolution-alarm[2126], evolution-calen[2156, 2237], evolution-sourc[1924], firefox[4689], firewall-applet[2098], gdm-x-session[1786], gnome-calendar[27088], gnome-documents[25267], gnome-session-b[1799], gnome-shell[1875], gnome-shell-cal[1920], gnome-software[2125], gnome-terminal-[32160], goa-daemon[1934], goa-identity-se[1957], gpaste-daemon[2196], gsd-clipboard[2036], gsd-color[2040], gsd-datetime[2044], gsd-keyboard[2047], gsd-media-keys[2052], gsd-power[1999], gsd-print-notif[2000], gsd-printer[2095], gsd-sharing[2008], gsd-sound[2028], gsd-wacom[2020], gsd-xsettings[2018], gvfsd-metadata[1941], gvfs-gphoto2-vo[1985], gvfs-mtp-volume[1976], gvfs-udisks2-vo[1968], kerneloops-appl[2113], mission-control[1958], pulseaudio[1902], sd_dummy[23759], sd_espeak-ng[23762], sd_generic[23768], systemd[1769], tracker-extract[2112], tracker-miner-a[2116], tracker-miner-f[2130], tracker-store[2107], Web Content[5121, 5141, 5127, 4777], Xorg[1788], zeitgeist-datah[2110] checkrestart output: -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_BE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_BE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: SELinux: enabled - Mode: Permissive - Policy name: refpolicy Versions of packages needrestart depends on: ii binutils 2.30.90.20180705-1 ii dpkg 1.19.0.5+b1 ii gettext-base 0.19.8.1-6+b1 ii libintl-perl 1.26-2 ii libmodule-find-perl 0.13-1 ii libmodule-scandeps-perl 1.24-1 ii libproc-processtable-perl 0.55-1 ii libsort-naturally-perl 1.03-2 ii libterm-readkey-perl 2.37-1+b2 ii perl 5.26.2-6 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.3 Versions of packages needrestart recommends: ii libpam-systemd 239-5 Versions of packages needrestart suggests: ii iucode-tool 2.3.1-1 pn needrestart-session | libnotify-bin <none> -- no debconf information
