Re: [External Email] Re: Apache doesn't restart after new libssl is installed



Would that not be the responsibility of the systemd bit for Apache (if using systemd)?
That said, I am not sure systemd does a great job of restarting a service.
Might require tailoring on the particular server.

I know there is a mechanism of some kind to cause daemons to
restart when libraries they use are being replaced; is that just
for libc updates, or something?
Have a look into the needrestart package, which is suggested, but not
required, by unattended-upgrades.
