But why? Surely a completing program should make the OS give a prompt? 9.0 doesn't!Not quite. See the prompt above? It had already exited. The messages you see afterward are from kdeinit killing itself and its child processes off. Do it again and instead of hitting Ctrl-C at this point, press Enter and you'll get a prompt as well
Thanks, will remember for next time.strace -v kpackage > kpackage.debug 2>&1 grep -A 2 -B 10 "Bad file descriptor" kpackage.debug You may have to look a bit more than 10 lines above. Use less, search to the point where it has "Bad file descriptor" then look back towards the top to see what file is attempting to be opened that fails.
