manager: catch the fail whale on required app failure (1.72 KB, patch)

Description darkxst 2015-03-10 07:11:37 UTC 
This was in some circumstances causing shell extensions to get disabled
since gnome-session would keep on running.

Comment 2 Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-13 21:30:18 UTC 
Can you explain the patch better? Does the fail whale never get shown if we don't call gsm_main?
Comment 3 darkxst 2016-09-14 09:25:40 UTC 
It was the other way around, gnome-session was failing to quit if the fail whale failed. 

Possibly a dupe of Bug 745707 or otherwise ubuntu specific.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2021-06-14 18:22:22 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version of gnome-session, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-session/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
