Bug Description

Currently ofono is restarted automatically during upgrades. This is problematic in some cases because that will disconnect the 3G connection. Maybe ofono could follow what connman does and require reboot? On the other hand, that's also very annoying for the user.

This is an annoying bug because your internet connection will disconnect if you are upgrading over 3g -> high priority

How does ofono get restarted on upgrades? I must be missing something, but I can't see where it gets restarted. Best to do for now is notice the user that a reboot is required.

Moving to Ubuntu package; this bug really only affects packaging (not upstream) so it belongs against the package itself.

This bug was fixed in the package ofono - 1.9-1ubuntu1

---------------
ofono (1.9-1ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian experimental; remaining changes:
    - debian/control: explicitly Conflicts with modemmanager: having both
      installed / running at the same time causes issues causes issues with
      both claiming modem devices.
    - debian/patches/02-dont-handle-stacktraces.patch: stop catching stacktraces
      and printing the information internally, so apport can catch and report
      the possible bugs.
    - debian/ofono.postinst: on configure, notify the user that a reboot is
      required (so ofono can get started by upstart). (LP: #600501)
    - debian/rules: pass --no-restart-on-upgrade so ofono isn't automatically
      restarted when upgrades.
    - Adding upstart config / Removing standard init script
    - Adding Apport support
    - Patch for recognizing special Huawei devices with weird serial
    - Override lintian to avoid script-in-etc-init.d... warnings.
    - Update debian/compat to 7
  * debian/series: add our patches to debian/patches/series now that the package
    uses quilt.
  * debian/patches/02-dont-handle-stacktraces.patch: refreshed.
  * debian/ofono-dev.install, debian/ofono.install:
    - Install usr/sbin/dundee and ofono.pc to the proper packages.
