There are running programs which still use files and libraries deleted or updated by recent upgrades. They should be restarted

Expected to see instead:

• Tell me where the trigger came from. I want to know which package I have to go chasing for lua deficiencies.

I need to see if I can squeeze out more information from the librpm API but the callback does not offer that much information

[bzeller]

So if I correctly understand the librpm code, the package that is mentioned is the package containing the script. So in your case the systemd package should be the one containing the LUA error. Sadly librpm does not offer more information about what package triggers it.

[bzeller]

Code here is the relevant part:
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/blob/master/lib/rpmtriggers.cc#L172

librpm iterates over the triggers it has remembered. But it only forwards the package containing the trigger, not what exactly has triggered it.... So you know what package to look into for Lua errors. Sadly it does not provide more information.
