This actually affects all apps, not only Libertine ones. We need UAL API to only send SIGTERM to the app (ideally only the main PID, if possible), in case it wants to pop a "Do you want to save..." dialog up. When that PID exits, we should also SIGTERM (and ultimately SIGKILL) all remaining processes in the group.
Separately, we need a "kill" method that would do SIGTERM and ultimately SIGKILL (or maybe SIGKILL directly, you asked to kill after all) the whole group. ** Description changed: - This is the master bug for better session management for Libertine X - apps.

If a user is editing a document and accidentally hits the X while the data is not saved, the user will not be prompted to save and the data will be lost. Another example is Libertine helper apps can crash when Xmir is killed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1628589 Title: Need better session management for apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1628589/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
