Public bug reported:
Debian bug #994204 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=994204) describes a flaw in debhelper that results
in the postinst being generated in such a fashion that services marked
--no-restart-on-upgrade (now deprecated in favour of --no-stop-on-
upgrade) restart anyway.
I've confirmed that the flaw appears to be present in the jammy version
of debhelper (though not impish) and that packages generated with it
appear to contain the flawed postinst (I first encountered this whilst
working on the open-iscsi merge), though I haven't yet managed to test
that the flaw exhibits itself on upgrade (though I'd say from the
presence of the flaw in the postinst, that it's a reasonable inference
that it will).
In dbus (the merge of which I'm currently working on), Debian has worked
around this but given I've now run into two affected packages (open-
iscsi and dbus), only one of which has a work-around, I'd much rather we
got debhelper fixed up and rebuilt affected packages?
