Debian package doesn't trigger a reload on install/upgrade

Expected and Actual Behavior

After installing or upgrading php7.0-phalcon Debian package, the package should trigger the reload of php-fpm or Apache (if mod_php is used) as others PHP packages do.

I'm not an expert in Debian packaging so I compared the php7.0-phalcon package with another PHP extention package (php7.0-intl) and I noticed that the debian/triggers (related manpage) file is missing in php7.0-phalcon.

Here is with the content of the file from php7.0-intl package :

activate-noawait /etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d
activate-noawait /etc/php/7.0/apache2filter/conf.d
activate-noawait /etc/php/7.0/fpm/conf.d

You're using packagecloud repo?

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe it does reload FPM daemon after new version is released and fetched.

If not, what's the problem to run systemctl reload php7.0-fpm?

I'm using the package from packagecloud repo.

The problem is that the package installation leaves the system in an inconsistent state and PHP throw errors like

[30-Mar-2018 09:32:08 UTC] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Class 'Phalcon\Debug' not found in /somedir/index.php:10
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
  thrown in /somedir/index.php on line 10

until I manually reload php-fpm.

This is problematic if you have, for example, enabled unattended-upgrades on your servers or other (semi-)automated upgrade techniques.

Well, it's always wise to have control over your production app. But as @sergeyklay moved it to proper spot - it's confirmed as bug I guess.
