[bug] spotify-tray does not die gracefully when killed with SIGKILL #1

Closed vnord closed 2 years ago

vnord commented 2 years ago

Environment: Arch Linux with kernel 5.15.10-arch1-1, X11 session handled by GDM.

How to reproduce:

  1. Run spotify-tray
  2. Execute killall -9 spotify-tray from a different terminal
  3. Attempt to run spotify-tray again from a terminal

Observed behavior: spotify-tray outputs Spotify Tray is already running and exits with a non-zero exit code. Restarting GDM and/or the X11 session does not help -- but a complete reboot does.

Expected behavior: spotify-tray should start normally.

PS. Thank you for your excellent work! It's a very helpful little utility that made me quite happy :smile:
