When closing mldonkey the front-end closes correctly, but the mlnet process doesn't. You have to do an killall mlnet in order to shut it down completely. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge mldonkey 2. start mldonkey 3. close mldonkey Actual Results: The process mlnet was still running Expected Results: Shut down both :)
What I usually do is choosing "Kill core" from the File menu before shutting down the frontend. In case of need, mldonkey can also be closed cleanly by telnet: #telnet localhost 4000 >kill However, mldonkey (mlnet) _is_ a deamon and it makes sense it has this behaviour. HTH Gregorio
Yes, I am aware that it is a deamon. But if mldonkey can start a deamon then it should also be able to stop it. Nice and clean :)
how about /etc/init.d/mldonkey start|stop?
Mldonkey only a script that starts the mlnet deamon. What I think is needed is a way to shut both the mlnet deamon and the mldonkey app down at the same time.
not a bug, but a feature! you can stop mldonkey via init script, killall or the gui.
