Comment 8 for bug 1823608

OK. That is odd. It would appear that the python is actually calling an 'exit()' then that is being caught by KiCad. Can you do this with your console window open and see which messages pop up when it happens. I know the console can be very noisy, so it sometimes helps to hit 'Clear' before performing the action. Then you know the correct sequence is somewhere near the top.

Also, can you open a terminal and type 'which python'?
