I did some archeology because I'm trying to get rid of the Ubuntu delta
compared to Debian.
I think the code change in 1.0.0e-2ubuntu3 is problematic. No blame: the
shell script was already hairy and difficult to understand and in order
to spot that, I had to identify a chunk of dead code, remove it, and
come back on the script again months later.
In short, I'm going to drop the postinst.
The current code is easier to read as it's shorter:
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]
then
if [ ! -z "$2" ] && [ ! -x /usr/lib/needrestart/apt-pinvoke ] ; then
if ! pidof /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg > /dev/null && [ -x
/usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required ]; then
/usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required
fi
fi
fi
IOW, apt-pinvoke must be chmod -x (i.e. we're on Desktop), X must not be
running (i.e. we're on Server), then we'll call notify-reboot-required.
Of course, with wayland now, you could be on desktop with a GUI and pass
the pidof test. Still, that's not the intent and wasn't. Pidof is a poor
proxy and I'll rather remove the code than add another special case.
I could _maybe_ be convinced of removing the pidof test but keeping the
apt-pinvoke one though.
