Addon crash when switching user

1st Official Post

    I reported this issue on github for the addon in question, but the dev points at libreELEC being at fault.

    It seems that when I log out off a user, it fails to stop the addon (?), so the addon stops working. All the users are using the addon.

    Crashlog:

    I'm using LibreELEC 9.0.2 but have tried with 8.2.5 as well - same issue.

    overall this is not really fixable at the moment

    1. Kodi has basically an "not that good" multiuser system that just don't work too well

    2. LE build ontop of that "not that good" system adds another not that good implementation

    result is a basically semi broken multiuser

    That's a shame. Isn't there some cheap workaround? I'm not all that great in the field but could one create a script that initiates at logoff, which kills a specific service?
