[ Javier Fernández-Sanguino ] * [checkrestart]: - Remove util-linux from the blacklist to have it report on getty processes that need to be restarted. (Closes: #688808) - Only complain and exit with error if not running as root when the script is going to be run. Do not complain if it is called with -h or -v. - Add preliminary support for systemd in checkrestart. Now, if the system is using systemd and there are service files for a package the admin is pointed to 'systemctl' (and systemd itself is ignored by checkrestart). Compatibility with packages only providing init.d files (or not using systemd) is still maintained. - Remove the packages that are ignored instead of keeping them in the list of packages to be processed (and ignore them later) - Tighten up the regular expression to avoid false positives with files that contain 'deleted' as part of their name. Patch provided by Simon Ruderich (Closes: #758711) - Apply patch provided by Felix C. Stegerman that prevents Python errors under some use scenarios (Closes: 731386) - Add other command interpreters: ruby (common) and tclsh (infrequent) to make it look for the real program - Add patch provided by Ian Bissett that implements an alternative mechanism to check for deleted files using /proc instead of lsof. This seems to be more efficient on systems with a large number of files. This mechanism is used when lsof is not available or when the user explicitly asks it not to be used. It will be probably enabled by default in future releases (Closes: #775472) - Checkrestart now does not depend on lsof and will run an alternative mechanism if not installed.

Also process STDERR instead of showing its contents to the end-user. (Closes: #657653, #513189) - The -p option now works also when libraries have been upgraded and the files in use are no longer present in the file system. - Do not abort if running in a vserver environment. In these environments the init system (i.e PID 1) is unaccessible.
