[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#495257: Possible upgrade solution

I've just asked upstream to comment on this issue.

In the mean time, would this be a possible solution:

can the postinst of the new package force a restart of all the services
(possibly including gdm et al to restart user sessions) which depend on
the system bus?

It's a bit ugly, but a. if this is an etch->lenny upgrade they will
probably all be restarted anyway and b. it's still better than an actual
reboot.

We could have one of those debconf questions like libc6 has.
