Public bug reported:
Just upgraded to intrepid beta. During the install, PAM asks which
services should be restarted (to get the new libpam?).
This is unacceptable for a non-technical user since a non-technical user
- has no idea what PAM is
- has no idea what a service is
- has no idea which should be restarted, if any.
I'm a technical user and I still don't now what the impact of the
question is or why I'm being asked. I can see that I might not want to
restart apache immediately if I was running a web server say but I'm
not, I'm running a desktop PC.
I think the dialog should be dropped and just restart the services,
especially on a dist upgrade when I'd rather leave the PC unattended
rather than babysit it for 2 hours.
