Manish,

Thanks for recommending zeitgeist as a reference package for this, it has a simple, effective solution. In the zeitgeist-core.postinst script it does this:

kill -s HUP `pidof -x zeitgeist-daemon` >/dev/null 2>&1 || true

So I'm adding something similar. I'm also adding something to properly shutdown dmedia-service when the package is removed.

Rodney,

What are you thoughts on what will/should happen with ChangeUp? What are the things it does better than the simple (but I'll admit kinda hacky) kill -s HUP approach?
