[Bug 244250] Re: Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.

[Anders Kaseorg]

This bug is not fixed.  It’s still the case that libssl1.0.0 generates a
spurious reboot notification during reconfiguration, on initial
installation, and on non-critical upgrades, as originally reported.  The
only change in 1.0.0e-2ubuntu1 is that this no longer happens at all on
systems running /usr/bin/X (even for critical upgrades!).

Please reopen this bug report.

Title:
  Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.

Status in “openssl” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The postinst script for libssl0.9.8 currently has a bug where it sends
  a reboot notifcation whenever libssl is configured.  So reconfiguring
  libssl0.9.8 or even just installing libssl0.9.8 will result in a
  reboot notification.  Sending of the reboot notification should
  definitely be moved inside the upgrading guard.  The correct fix is
  likely to move it inside a version comparison guard for particular
  important updates like Colin suggests below -- this is what every
  other standard package using notify-reboot-required does.
