Comment 6 for bug 1971650

I had an actual look at the (scary) postinst: the code you've quoted is the only live code left (the rest can only be triggered when upgrading from 18.04).

The good^Wgreat news is that I will delete ". /usr/share/debconf/confmodule" from the script, and it probably should have been behind a conditional.

Now, I'm not sure what we want here in general. If I understand the code right, it will only show the notification when X is not running but avoids servers (due to the check against needrestart). That seems quite inconsistent. Or do I misunderstand something? The code looks like it has grown organically over a fairly long timeframe.

Shall we assume on both desktops and servers that an openssl update always requires a reboot? At least until we do anything related to needrestart.
