[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#799396: dbus: please "touch /var/run/reboot-required" on upgrade

[Alexandre Detiste]

Package: dbus
Version: 1.10.0-3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maitainer,

Please "touch /var/run/reboot-required" on upgrade to notify
unattended-upgrades that it should reboot the computer.

"notify-reboot-required" is a Ubuntu-only and most
of this infrastrure is not anymore shipped in Debian
(e.g. "KDE Kingston update notifier"),
but the minimal /var/run/reboot-required interface is still
supported by U-U as a fallback.

unattended-upgrade also already install a similar hook for kernel updates:
https://github.com/mvo5/unattended-upgrades/blob/debian/sid/kernel/postinst.d
/unattended-upgrades


@dbus.postinst
    if pidof -c /bin/dbus-daemon /usr/bin/dbus-daemon >/dev/null; then
        echo "A reboot is required to replace the running dbus-daemon." >&2
        echo "Please reboot the system when convenient." >&2

        # trigger an update notification which recommends to reboot
        [ -x /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required ] && \
            /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required || true
+       touch /var/run/reboot-required
    fi
