Package: consolekit
Version: 0.4.1-4
If logged in with KDM/GDM or session launched via ck-launch-session process
with name "console-kit-daemons" grabs current vt and won't release it until
killed manually. This behavior leads to launch impossibility X again in vt7
after stopping.
Steps to reproduce:
1) switch to vt1 for example
2) say /etc/init.d/kdm stop
(GDM, XDM, whatever)
3) say /etc/init.d/kdm start (And login manager starts in vt8. try to switch to
vt7 and see just blinking cursor)
4) now try deallocvt 7 (and as you can see it is busy)
5) killall console-kit-daemon
6) deallocvt 7 (now it works)
7) /etc/init.d/kdm stop
8) /etc/init.d/kdm start (now it starts in vt7 as expected)
Here is a bug filled, but no reaction from freedesktop:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29920
But workaround was suggested in comments there.
And another solution: in Gentoo Linux initscript created for consolekit:

depend() {
need dbus
use logger
}
start() {
ebegin "Starting ConsoleKit daemon"
start-stop-daemon --start -q \
--pidfile /var/run/ConsoleKit/pid \
--exec /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon --
eend $?
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping ConsoleKit daemon"
start-stop-daemon --stop -q --pidfile /var/run/ConsoleKit/pid
eend $?
}
========================================================================================
May be such initscript can be added to consolekit debian package too?
