Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.0-1
Severity: normal
The changelog for network-manager-applet 0.9.0-2 says:
* On upgrades tell update-notifier to show a reboot-required notification
since older versions of nm-applet will no longer work with network-manager
0.9 and need to be restarted.
If nm-applet needs restarting, couldn't it just re-exec itself rather
than suggesting a reboot of the entire system? Killing and restarting
nm-applet worked perfectly, without requiring a reboot.
Please consider adding a mechanism to support rebootless upgrades.
Thanks,
Josh Triplett

We no longer trigger a reboot notification via update-notifier.
There is obviously no mechanism to restart processes within a user
session, but afair, for a long time now there hasn't been a need to
reexec nm-applet due to incompatibilites.
At this point, I think it's best to simply close this bug report.
Regards,
Michael
