Description william.jon.mccann 2010-06-15 09:55:47 UTC

It seems that dbus-launch doesn't exit when the child dbus-daemon is killed.  In GDM we use a single X server to run the GDM greeter session and the new user's session.  We close down the greeter session by, among other things, killing the pid returned by dbus-launch.  However, after a user login dbus-launch is still running.
