By using the unix tools that have existed since forever and a day. Detatching from the user's session. If a program is broken and doesn't die when it's supposed to, fix the program, not every other program that behaves correctly with functionality that's been around for decades.

- Sanddancer 10y agoThe bad software will update itself to continue being bad using the new mechanisms that systemd provides to allow it to be bad. By spending efforts to fix the bad software, or to write better software, you will do much greater things than to break the multitude of software that behaves correctly.
