The reason I want to remove the code is that it wasn't meant for Desktop. It works on Desktop when using wayland but this is was definitely not the intent back then. As I say in https://code.launchpad.net/~adrien/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+git/openssl/+merge/466581 , I don't think the postinst can be fixed due the behavior not having been specified: you can't fix something if the intent is unknown.
I am saddened that needrestart is not on desktop machines but on the other hand, the code has probably never really worked fine for the past 10 or 15 years. It's not like we would be removing something that works in favor of something that isn't ready. By the way, I run a server install on my laptop unfortunately so I experience the needrestart path. That being said, I've only heard complaints about the current postinst. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244250 Title: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.
