we could make a /etc/packagekit-backend.conf and write a list of
reboot packages into the conf file.

<pre wrap="">I think the point is that it's a lot more preferable to be able to
specify this on a per-package basis (e.g. in the RPM spec file for each
package requiring a reboot) and then have this data propagated into the
update meta data.

<pre wrap="">That will be the best way to do it, but it will need some changes to rpm,
rpmbuild, createrepo & yum.
Maybe adding it as a selection in bodhi and get it into the extra update
metadata, is a easier way to go :)

Bodhi has been adding a reboot_suggested field into the updateinfo for a

This will give us advisory details, bug/cve ids and links, sha1sums,
among other things.

It have added support for the extended updateinfo, but i only use it to
detect if it is a security update<br>
