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

[Christian Ehrhardt ]

Since this started to seem different between Mate&KDE as discussed above I was giving a few more terminals I regularly use a try:
- tilix (VTE based) - warns me that I'll close processes under this session, keeps screen alive detached
- yakuake (kde based) - warns me that I'll close processes under this session, keeps screen alive detached
- konsole - warns me that I'll close processes under this session, keeps screen alive detached
- gnome-terminal - no warning, keeps screen alive detached

So screen never totally died in any of those, just remained detached as
one would want/expect.

Since I even tried several KDE based terminals, but not had KDE itself
running (I had default gnome based Desktop). I wonder if there might be
some general KDE-setting that changes how closing sessions work.

@Gustavo - when you get to retry it on a VM as you mentioned, would you
mind trying the same on a KDE-Neon vs a default-Gnome desktop?

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.
