[Touch-packages] [Bug 244250] Re: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.
@mdeslaur: Thank you for your reply! Does that mean that it is supposed to happen on an Ubuntu server system? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244250 Title: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 244250] Re: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.
@mdeslaur: Again, thank you for your reply! Pardon my ignorance but I've never quite understood why that is - why is an update of libssl different from an update of other libs where you can simply restart the depending applications/daemons? And why is it different on a desktop? Maybe these questions require lengthy answers so if you could point me in a direction where I read up on these questions I'd be very grateful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244250 Title: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 244250] Re: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.
On Ubuntu 14.04 this bug still persists. Is there any reason why libssl would require different treatment than other libraries? I.e. why wouldn't it suffice to restart services depending on libssl or libcrypto? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244250 Title: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.
