[Bug 553328] [NEW] Backend does not get terminated

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Steve Beattie (sbeattie):

The impact of this bug is that when checkbox finished, the backend keeps
running forever while consuming processing power the whole time. This
fix simply makes sure that the backend finishes when the frontend
finishes too.

When Checkbox is stopped, the backend_info plugin sends a kill signal to
the backend process. However, since this process is running as root,
then the Checkbox process is not allowed to send it a signal.
