[Bug 778205] Re: emacs daemon inhibits logout

 

This problem is worse in GNOME 3, where there is no way to skip the
60-second delay on log out (except by killing the Emacs daemon, which
kind of defeats the point of having a daemon).

Title:
  emacs daemon inhibits logout

Status in “emacs23” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: emacs23

  After using emacs in daemon mode through emacsclient -c, I get an
  extra prompt and long delays on logout, because GNOME decides that the
  running emacs daemon is “not responding”.

  This can be reproduced by running
    emacsclient -a "" -c whatever
  then closing the window and logging out.  A screenshot of the resulting dialog box is attached.
