Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.9-2
Severity: normal

I normally run aptitude from a konsole session, su'ing to a root prompt 
before running aptitude. On one recent occasion I failed to quit 
aptitude before quitting a kde session and aptitude remained running, 
consuming excessive amounts of CPU time.

Should the closure of the konsole session stop aptitude, even if it is 
being run from a root prompt within that konsole session? 

If aptitude "loses" its controlling terminal, shouldn't it quit anyway, 
unless something special was done to run it without a controlling 
terminal?
