I'm interested to know where Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (mathieu-tl) and Sebastien Bacher (seb128) get their information. If that is the case that it brings down dbus (and is supposed to bring down dbus), then I should see my desktop crash whenever I run this command on whatever machine I run it on? That is not what is happenning though, it occurs on only one particular computer of mine. Also, if this were the case, then why would running this command be recommnded in thousands of places, often as a final step after making changes to your web stack. Restarting any service shouldn't screw over your system, and I mean absolutely any service. If restarting it does that, then it shouldn't have a restart option, should have to manually kill it. If it needs to bring down dbus, then it should also bring it up again, in a smooth problem free way. Anyway, if the two of them are right and the command shouldn't be run, then this is probably one of the largest disconnects I've ever seen between the people that wrote a program and the people that make use of it.
