[Bug 1900008] Re: Sessions of screen does not keep running in background

[Gustavo A. Díaz]

Hi, first of all I don' t know why I did' t receive any notification of
this bug report.

Second, and to clarify, I being using screen command since 2000 (which
Is my beginning as Linux admin). This being said, I know how it works.

All my other Ubuntu upgrades from 18.04 to 20.04, this does not happen
(I do not have time yet to test it in a new Ubuntu 20.04, maybe later in
a VM).

Simple test: open screen. Just close you terminal (not exit...). When I
want to recover screen session with screen -x, is gone, none, nothing...

Btw, I only tested this KDE Neon, which is Ubuntu 20.04 based and I
think has nothing to do that is KDE based, since screen has nothing to
do with it.

Title:
  Sessions of screen does not keep running in background

Status in screen package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In a new fresh installed 20.04, when I use screen command and close
  the terminal (not closing screen sesion), then I can't recover it with
  screen -x, since does not exist. I can only recover screen sesion if
  the original terminal running screen is not being closed.

  For some reason, this is closing screen session of that user:

  Oct 15 13:32:45 pc-caja2 systemd[1]: session-66.scope: Succeeded.
  Oct 15 13:32:45 pc-caja2 systemd[1]: Stopped Session 66 of user usuario.

  This does not happen in an upgraded system from 18.04 to 20.04.
