Description of problem: When updating the distro, frequently libs or even services are upgraded. Already running processes are not checked and sometimes this breaks some things. It could happen that some program linked to an updated lib is still running with old version. There should be some component checking and notifying which processes are running on old libs or services and need to be restarted. It could even propose to automagically restart them (with some checkbox or similar). On Debian and Centos they have needrestart (for daemons) and needrestart-session (for programs running in user sessions) which do exactly this. Needrestart offers to restart services, and neddrestart-session brings up a list of programs that should be manually restarted. We should have at least some mechanism to notify users of this outdated libs problem when updating, be it needrestart (if this could be ported to Mageia) or another native solution.
