Hi all, I am looking for a sponsor for the new package "gnome-session-shutdown", of which I am the upstream author.
It is a clone of the "shutdown" command that will gracefully end the GNOME session before bringing the system down. It makes possible to easily bring the system down from a terminal (or from within a script) with a "shutdown"-like syntax, closing all the GNOME applications and ending the GNOME session in a safe way instead of just terminating the display manager, without requiring root privileges. "gnome-session-shutdown" tries to replicate as much as possible the behavior of the "shutdown" command, but will trigger the shutdown via the GNOME session manager D-Bus interface (like "gnome-session-quit" does) instead of just issuing a SIGTERM signal to all processes. * Package name : gnome-session-shutdown Version : 1.82-1 Upstream Author : Jacopo Lorenzetti <jaco...@cyan.xubiq.com> * URL : https://launchpad.net/gnome-session-shutdown * License : GPL Section : gnome It builds those binary packages: gnome-session-shutdown - Shutdown command for the GNOME desktop environment To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/gnome-session-shutdown Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gnome-session-shutdown/gnome-session-shutdown_1.82-1.dsc The ITP bug report is #672145: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=672145 Thank you -- Jacopo Lorenzetti -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
