What you are asking is "How to ensure all logged in users email & contacts & calendar applications are stopped before upgrading a package" I don't think I can come up with a policy compliant way of doing that. but `akonadictl stop` for each user after connecting to their dbus session should do it from a technical point of view. Maybe first diverting some files to prevent the user from starting them up again, and then diverting back once upgraded. But all of this is a bit euww. /Sune -- I didn’t stop pretending when I became an adult, it’s just that when I was a kid I was pretending that I fit into the rules and structures of this world.
