Public bug reported:
For many years I have been using azureus to download torrents. Azureus needs a
graceful shutdown and I've been using a shutdown script for that since kde3.
The problem is that with kubuntu 13.04 the script is not called even though
System Settings seem to set it up correctly (it creates a symlink to my script
into .kde/shutdown).
However to debug this problem there is no need to hassle with azureus. Just
screate a script containing for example:
eject
sleep 10
or whatever you notice if it's happening or not, then go to system
settings/startup and shutdown/autostart, press "add script", then add your file
and finally set "run on"to shutdown.
What I experience on my computer is that nothing happens on shutdown or
restart, however the script is executed correctly on logout.
I have another computer which (for reasons that have nothing to do with this
bug) still runs kubuntu 12.04, on that computer my script is executed on
shutdown and restart too. I would really need that functionality because not
only I loose data in azureus (for example seed time/upload on private trackers)
but sometimes I would like to do other stuff too on shutdown.
