What is the correct way to disable a service addon, the example code from the wiki:-

Code:

import time
import xbmc

if __name__ == '__main__':
    monitor = xbmc.Monitor()

    while not monitor.abortRequested():
        # Sleep/wait for abort for 10 seconds
        if monitor.waitForAbort(10):
            # Abort was requested while waiting. We should exit
            break
        xbmc.log("hello addon! %s" % time.time(), level=xbmc.LOGDEBUG)

Crashes Kodi 17.3 Linux when pressing the Disable button But works fine under 17.3 windows.

I get no crash log and these are the last entrys in the kodi.log file:-

Code:

19:50:05.986 T:3619525536    INFO: CPythonInvoker(15, /storage/.kodi/addons/service.test/main.py): script successfully run

Then the UI just hangs.

Any help please.

Seems like it's not just the wiki sample code, every service addons I've tried all behave the same under Kodi 17.3 linux:-

service.watchdog
service.skin.widgets
service.popwindow
and many more.....

Press Disable and the UI just hangs and they all give the same log entrys:-

Code:
