Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libpam0g
When I upgraded my Gutsy Tribe 5 today, libpam0g notified me that the
following services needed a restart for the changes to take effect.
Among the listet were cupsys, kdm, at, etc. I noticed that kdm was in
the list, but as the choice was kdm and since it wasn't obvious to me
that I should edit this list manually, I pressed the <Next> button.
Immediately, kdm was restarted. This, of course, caused the upgrade to
be aborted, as well as losing all my work.
Since the button was labeled <Next>, I expected another dialogue. If
the button was labeled <Restart> I would've hesitated to click it since
I know what happends if you restart kdm. However, less experienced
users would have no idea what just happened.
