needrestart and xfce4-session
Any time needrestart is run it complains about xfce4-session running
obsolete binaries or libraries.

Running kernel seems to be up-to-date.
Failed to check for processor microcode upgrades.
No services need to be restarted.
No containers need to be restarted.
User sessions running outdated binaries:
charles @ session #2: xfce4-session[2280]

--------------------------------------------------
Recently a new Linux kernel came down the pipeline, so I
rebooted. That should flush out all obsolete binaries or libraries,
but I still get the message.
Further, I get it on three different AMD-64 machines, all running
Debian 11 as updated.
The Debian web site reports that the current version of xfce4-session
should be 4.16.0-1, and indeed that is what I have.
Is there any way to check the dependencies of xfce4-session short of
writing a script to parse the dependencies reported by "apt show
xfce4-session"?
This is more obnoxious than a show stopper, so I don't want to put a
lot of effort into it.

Does anybody read signatures any more?
