Description skierpage 2009-01-18 05:36:26 UTC

Version:           0.9.4-1 (using Devel)
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Several times when updating to 4.1.96, the kdewin installer failed to install dbus-msvc-1.2.4-1.bin.tar.bz2
	Error
	Can't remove C:/KDE4/bin/dbus-daemon.exe
	[Cancel]
because dbus-daemon.exe was running.  I had *definitely* killed dbus-daemon before starting, I had no KDE apps running, and kdeinit4 -- shutdown works fine to stop it.

I verified from task manager and kdeinit4 --list that the installer sometimes starts up dbus-daemon raound  package uninstallation and/or installation.  (This is separate from it starting dbus-daemon during post-processing.)  But I'm not sure of the exact circumstances.

Separate bug I should file
	Error
	Can't remove C:/KDE4/bin/dbus-daemon.exe
	[Cancel]
should be Abort, Retry, Ignore

The problem was caused by using the --shutdown option of kdeinit4, which should kills applications first using a dbus call. This starts the dbus-daemon as mentioned by the reporter. 

This issue is fixed in svn - an updated binary release (0.9.5-rc2) will be available soon.
