When HaikuDepot can't access the Internet (I'm behind a proxy server), it doesn't quit.

I tested several times with unplugged cable. Each time HaikuDepot stays in the Deskbar for a short while and then it properly quits. This is due to the tear-down sequence: In its destructor, the Model stops the package populator thread which communicates with the web-app. That thread is waiting for the HTTP services thread to return, and that one blocks on the network request and eventually times out (after about 30 seconds?). It could be possible to change how these threads communicate, they could use BMessages. Then they wouldn't need to wait for each other during teardown, but only if they are not still sharing data structures somehow. In any case, HaikuDepot does not dead-lock, it's just an irritation that it stays in Deskbar a little longer. To reflect that, I am changing ticket properties.

I suspect that Stephan has diagnosed this problem correctly. Better cancellation behaviour was introduced in 3094fef308a6aaaef9827863a0a99640bdaaa5af; Jessica and luroh could I please ask you to try this issue again and see if the problem has gone away. If so, can you then also close this ticket -- thanks.

This issue is resolved now.
