This doesn't match what I've seen in any of my (unofficial) tests,
including the one where I was specifically checking for this on a
default GNOME-on-Wayland setup: the old session was left running while
I finished tidying up after the upgrade.  What desktop environment are
you talking about?  (And what "warning" did it give in the terminal?)

This can be triggered if you specifically tell needrestart to restart
processes that are usually left un-restarted, but the package
needrestart probably isn't even installed on your machine.
