yes it is. The idea was that a service restart especially in the case where data loss can be triggered by a restart is something which should be done intentionally and abslutely intended by the admin herself. > Most RHEL/Fedora daemon packages include a "service x condrestart" in > the postinstall script, so that yum updates can be completely automatic. that's actually a good point. We'll think about adding a condrestart, too ...
