Why not just hook Portage's emerge process? The hook could be configured to automatically restart the associated init.d files of any emerged package. As to the libraries, `equery d PACKAGE` could be used to see which programs need to be restarted. I have the same interest in automatic restarts; if I ever find the time, I'm planning to implement something similar to the above described process. -- Anthony Gorecki Ectro-Linux Foundation -- [email protected] mailing list
