Thx, I didn't know needrestart until today, but learned about in in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770135 and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823987.
But regardless of using needrestart or finding grepping them from the
output of lsof, it seems systemd has problems with it or dbus being
restarted.
The bug is obviously nearly 6 years old but hasn't been fixed yet.
I have spent much time today restarting dbus, ssh, and/or several
systemd services in different order. Also systemctl daemon-reexec.
Nothing seems to help and it seems systemd bugs again force me to
reboot. But I am currently 700 km away from my server for the next
1.5 weeks and noone else has access to it. So I'd prefer not to risk
it.
