Comment 12 for bug 257089

It seems that Amarok does not do quite a bit of saving and cleanup when pkill'd - which is irritating, because that seems to be what GNOME does on shutdown. It does not save the playlist, nor does it send SIGTERM to script processes (as a workaround I've put checks for whether amarok is still running in all my scripts, probably a good thing to do anyway). I don't know whether this is a GNOME change or an Amarok regression, but to me it seems like this could be solved by catching SIGTERM (which is what I believe GNOME sends) and executing a normal application quit as performed by KDE with dcop.
