Title: fixed a couple of minor issues in call to notification scripts
Component: Notifications
Level: 1
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.9i1
The fixed issues are as follows:
- in case of a timeout of the notification script, the script is supposed to be
terminated. This worked only on python 2.6 and newer
- due to timing there was a good chance the exit code of the notification script
was ignored
- the output of the notification script was buffered in memory until the process
exited before being written. Theoretically this could cause high memory usage
in the notification processes
