GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 615234
Add save-state handling to session management support
Last modified: 2021-05-19 11:08:42 UTC
Since version 2.30, evolution is lacking session management support. It will not save itself when requested to by the session manager. Looks like the corresponding code has been completely dropped.
The old libgnome-based session management support didn't really work. We use EggSMClient now, but only listen for quit signals. Listening for the "save-state" signal is an enhancement I hope to add soon.
Good to know it’s being worked on, thanks.
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, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
