Package: needrestart
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: normal
Dear Thomas and Patrick,
if I want to report a bug against needrestart, the bug script runs
/etc/needrestart/hook.d/30-pacman which calls pacman with neither a
given path nor with limiting $PATH.
On my system it finds the game binary /usr/games/pacman from the
package pacman instead of the expected ArchLinux's package manager
(which is named pacman, too, but isn't available in Debian).
Interestingly /usr/games/pacman seems to swallow the given options
without issues and happily runs, well, Pacman. :-D
See the screenshot at

This was probably the most hilarious bug I ever run into. Thanks for
that experience. :-)
P.S.: To get out of this so that I can still report the bug, I started
the following little script in another terminal:
while :; do killall -INT pacman; sleep 0.1 ; done
