+## Notes
+Checkrestart in the [debian-goodies][] package detects processes that need to be restarted by checking if a file was deleted but is still in use by using lsof. You might want to try this one since it is well tested in Debian since 2003.
+
## TODO
* More reliable mapping between processes and init scripts
* Better support for daemons in interpreted languages like xend or calendarserver, so far we only detect that /usr/bin/python2.X is affected.
