Does this mean that with the tracer addin no longer working there is no way to get the equivalent functionality with dnf at update time?
According to the dnf5 man page, you should install the 'dnf5-plugins' package. Then the 'needs-restarting' command is available.
Also see https://dnf5.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dnf5.8.html and https://dnf5.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dnf5_plugins/needs_restarting.8.html#needs-restarting-plugin-ref-label.
As I posted in a separate thread on Friday last, I think that both the command 'tracer' and the corresponding dnf5 plugin are broken. I've been waiting to see if anyone contradicts this but so far no-one has, so I may post a BZ report. It seems to me a serious regression.
