Comment(by broder):
I wonder if afs-config's postinst should also schedule a reboot if
restarting openafs-client fails?
It looks like you're supposed to do that by running `/usr/share/update-
notifier/notify-reboot-required`, although that doesn't seem to generally
exist on non-ubuntu-desktop systems. That script just touches `/var/run
/reboot-required`, which is what debathena-auto-update keys off of to
trigger a reboot.
So maybe something like
{{{
if ! invoke-rc.d openafs-client restart; then
if [ -x /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required]; then
/usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required
else
touch /var/run/reboot-required
fi
fi
}}}
The `fs newcell` loop should be sufficient for most cases, since usually
updates to afs-config just change the CSDB. Maybe have an easy way to
trigger a reboot on specific upgrades?
