Changelog

needrestart (3.6-7ubuntu2) noble; urgency=medium

  * Restore default behaviour wrt TTY detection.
    We're overriding it anyway later on in Ubuntu mode by default, unless a
    UI is explicitly given.
  * d/t/control: add missing libc6-dev dependency.
    We're building a small C helper to mock out uname(), and of course it
    needs the glibc headers available.
  * d/t: explicitly set the debconf frontend.
    autopkgtests set the frontend to noninteractive, but we actually want to
    test what happens with the default frontend to check that the flow
    doesn't get interrupted.
