Description-en: tool to find processes mapping shared objects
After package upgrades (especially security fixes), services using a
shared library need to be restarted to make use of the updated version.
.
Whatmaps looks for shared objects provided by upgraded packages, lists any
running processes that map them, and can integrate with APT to restart
services as needed after security upgrades.
