Hi,

| I'm open to doing this, could you please provide a sample output that
| would be more machine readable?

I'll just invent something here, with this as the basis:

Found 13 processes using old versions of upgraded files
(5 distinct programs)
(5 distinct packages)

Of these, 2 seem to contain init scripts which can be used to restart them:
The following packages seem to have init scripts that could be used
to restart them:
dbus:
        29231   /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
        27464   /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
screen:
        2039    /usr/bin/screen

These are the init scripts:
/etc/init.d/dbus restart
/etc/init.d/screen-cleanup restart

These processes do not seem to have an associated init script to restart them:
python2.5-minimal:
        9938    /usr/bin/python2.5
        9856    /usr/bin/python2.5
        28062   /usr/bin/python2.5
        9815    /usr/bin/python2.5
        9897    /usr/bin/python2.5
xvfb:
        9796    /usr/bin/Xvfb
bash:
        2040    /bin/bash
        32729   /bin/bash
        9428    /bin/bash
        13261   /bin/bash

becomes:

If you have criticisms, I am in no way bound to this format; I just made
it up.

UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are
