[pkg-bacula-devel] Bug#1017417: Exceptions for needrestart

[Carsten Leonhardt]

Package: needrestart
Version: 3.5-4+deb11u2
Severity: wishlist

Dear Patrick,

I maintain the package "bacula", a backup program. It consists of
several daemons that shouldn't be restarted while a backup is
running. Today I've once again accidentally restarted the main daemon
during a backup run, which brings me to my wish: Please either add the
daemons to the override_rc list or (my preference) make it possible for
packages to contain config snippets to manage the default
selection. Maybe it's already possible to do with a config snippet in
/etc/needrestart/conf.d/ - in that case some documentation or an example
would be great.

The daemons are:

bacula-dir
bacula-sd
bacula-fd

Best Regards,

Carsten
