Package: consolekit Version: 0.3.0-3+b1 Severity: normal Hi,
pressing the Secure Attention Key kills all processes that have a /dev/tty handle open; console-kit-daemon happens to be one of them (actually, all threads receive a separate SIGKILL, which is very noisy). Despite not knowing what I actually need this process for, I think it might be bad for it to be stopped if some other tool or library expects it to exist when it doesn't, so I think the daemon should be made to set itself up in a way that pressing the SAK does not kill it entirely (e.g. perhaps a separate process for /dev/tty1, and not keeping a /dev/tty handle).
