We don't know if you install a pkg like dovecot to work on its documentation, to code stuff depending on its libs or headers or if you want to use it in its main direction as a daemon. Why should we make Arch more and more complex just to satisfy a few of you with things that are almost self explaining??? If you run a daemon or application that gets upgraded it's first your fault you didn't stop it before and 2nd your task to decide after reading the Changelog/commit-list if you have to solve your mistake by restarting the stuff. -Andy
