Bug 76719 – executable flag missing on KDE shutdown scripts (KDE 3.3.2, maybe also others)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jochen Trumpf 2005-01-04 20:35:23 UTC]

There seem to be missing executable flags on the shutdown scripts in $KDEDIR/shutdown which prevents them from being run. For some reason the test for startup scripts in startkde uses -r (readable file) and sources them while the test for shutdown scripts uses -x (executable file) and runs them. It's beyond me why this is so, but making the shutdown script(s) executable solves the problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.uncomment something in a startup script under $KDEDIR/env (e.g. the ssh-agent) and the corresponding entry in a shutdown script under $KDEDIR/shutdown
2.log into KDE
3.log out again

Actual Results:  
the agent is still running  

Expected Results:  
the agent should have stopped

Please note that the shutdown script provided for gpg-agent doesn't work with gpg-agent-1.9.14 (see bug #76720), so that one is not a good test case ;-)

I've fixed this in the 3.4.0_beta1 split ebuilds. Someone should do it for
the 3.3 kdebase - I don't have the monolithic ebuilds installed atm.

Now it's fixed in kdebase 3.3.2-r2, too.
