Script for detecting services that need to be restarted after upgrade

Hi.


When upgrading our RHEL 4 and 5 servers, it would be nice to have some way
of determining which services need to be restarted (or maybe if the server
itself must be rebooted) in order for processes to start using the the
upgraded libraries and such instead of the old ones. I've heard that these
exists scripts that can be run to determine this sort of thing. Does anyone
know if such scripts are available for RHEL, either via the official
repository, or via EPEL?
