[Bug 1739056] Re: Subsequent launches forks from the same process which causes grouping to stretch across all instances
Perhaps there's some way that could be the default action, or at least some sort of notification could be given upon install? People used to terminator on ubuntu could run into some bad issues with this. I was using terminator for hours after upgrading to 17.10 not realizing I was editing and saving files on dozens of servers that were open in other workspaces. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1739056 Title: Subsequent launches forks from the same process which causes grouping to stretch across all instances To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/terminator/+bug/1739056/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1739056] [NEW] Subsequent launches forks from the same process which causes grouping to stretch across all instances
Public bug reported: On previous ubuntu versions, every launch of a terminator instance creates a new process. 17.10 appears to not do so. As a result, if I attempt to "group"the internal terminals within a terminator window, it instead groups every instance of every terminator window that has been opened. This not only makes the grouping functionality in terminator completely useless, it is extremely hazardous as users will be unknowingly typing commands in other unintended terminals.

[Bug 1470588] Re: Init Script does not contain a status function
I think I created a patch? I've never used bzr before but I used it to pull the package, made the change, and then did a bzr diff. I'm attaching the resulting file. ** Patch added: "initStatusFunc.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1470588/+attachment/4423005/+files/initStatusFunc.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470588 Title: Init Script does not contain a status function To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1470588/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1470588] [NEW] Init Script does not contain a status function
Public bug reported: I didn't realize this until I started using puppet to manage the open- vm-tools package. Puppet was attempting to run the status function in the init script for the application and the puppet run was failing due to the script returning a 1. The Red Hat init script for the same package has a status, but I'm guessing since the actual process is called "vmtoolsd" and the name of the script/binary is different it requires a somewhat odd status function. I've written a working status function for this package's init script and asked in #ubuntu irc channel how to submit it and was told to submit a bug report in launchpad. This is on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS with open-vm-tools package 2:9.4.0-1280544-5ubuntu6.2 ** Affects: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470588 Title: Init Script does not contain a status function To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1470588/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
