Error message when closing qtplasmac

I can't see anything has changed in that commit. All I could see was an additional logging call.
what does LOG.debug do?

It's at the very bottom. Changed sys.exit(_qtvcp) to sys.exit(_app)

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/8890c4.../qtvcp/qtvcp.py#L509

what does LOG.debug do?

Line 427: LOG.debug('Exiting HAL')

It passes the string following it ('Exiting HAL') to the logger at the level indicated (debug in this case, the levels are: debug, info, warning, error, critical, verbose).

Worth noting - the default level is "warning", so you will only see log messages at warning level and above in the terminal. If you want to see lower than that, you can use a one of the options that is set in the display section of the ini file after "qtvcp".

DISPLAY = qtvcp -d qtplasmac

Would set logging to the debug level for qtplasmac.

Thanks for clayifying. I missed that!
I just  pulled the 2.9 branch and it does seem to work running a Woodpecker sim which is QTVCP based.
I always wondered why it affected QTVCP and not QTPYVCP yet we were told it was out of our control so live with it.

And the qtplasmac sim exits cleanly too!

Chris did the heavy lifting, I just found that last little bit.

Thanks for the extra data point. I tried qtplasmac, qtaxis, qtdragon_hd and a few others, but not woodpecker.

Fingers crossed it stays fixed...

Is there a way to fix it, maybe if I install other versions?
