On Ubuntu 14.04 this bug still persists. Is there any reason why libssl
would require different treatment than other libraries? I.e. why
wouldn't it suffice to restart services depending on libssl or
libcrypto?

Title:
  Spurious reboot notifications caused by libssl upgrades.

Status in “openssl” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The postinst script for libssl0.9.8 currently has a bug where it sends
  a reboot notifcation whenever libssl is configured.  So reconfiguring
  libssl0.9.8 or even just installing libssl0.9.8 will result in a
  reboot notification.  Sending of the reboot notification should
  definitely be moved inside the upgrading guard.  The correct fix is
  likely to move it inside a version comparison guard for particular
  important updates like Colin suggests below -- this is what every
  other standard package using notify-reboot-required does.
