File to flag if the system needs restart
Creates /var/run/needs_restarting file if any "critical" package got upgraded. As the /var/run/ is ephemeral and renewed each boot, the file disappears after reboot. The packages that flags the restart need are: - kernel-generic, kernel-huge: as a new kernel needs a restart to be running. - glibc, glibc-solibs: Restart is the only way to be sure that all running binaries are using the new glibc. - eudev, elogind, dbus: those provides some very basic system services. - openssl, openssl-solibs: security bugs on those libs are dangerous, the reboot makes sure that all running binaries are using the newer version.
