[Bug 980292] New: Yast shouldn't allow running two instances of module at once
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980292 Bug ID: 980292 Summary: Yast shouldn't allow running two instances of module at once Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: hguo@suse.com QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- It's very easy to mistakenly double click on a module icon in Yast2, causing two instances of the module to be started, and there's absolutely no point in using more than one instance of any yast module. Please disallow double click on yast2, and prevent more than one instance of module to be started. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

And what if we just warn the user that the same Yast module already runs?
That doesn't really change anything for the scenarios from comment #2. If anything, we'd need to offer the user to terminate that other YaST instance (e.g. send a SIGTERM, after a timeout a SIGKILL). Otherwise we'd end up in the same unfortunate scenario as Firefox does so often: The application flatly refuses to start, and the user has to hunt down processes to terminate manually. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
