Bug#733816: khotkeys launches actions with SIGHUP blocked, leading to unclosable xterms
Package: kde-workspace-bin
Version: 4:4.11.3-2
Severity: normal
I have a hotkey to launch an xterm. This worked before the most recent
aptitude upgrade to track testing, but now when I launch an xterm that
way, clicking the kwin close button (or picking close from the kwin
menu) does nothing; the xterm sticks around.
After searching for a while, I compared an strace of each, and it seems
that khotkeys is starting xterm with SIGHUP blocked/masked, and that's
causing the issue.
khotkeys probably shouldn't have signals masked when starting commands.
