How to quit/kill a paradox buffer?

How to quit/kill a paradox buffer?

I've discovered a problem with using paradox for package management,
in that when I've finished downloading/installing packages, I then
quit using "Quit" from the package menu dropdown. But, the paradox
package is still live and shows "Paradox Menu" as its buffer
heading.

How can I quit it completely and close its buffer, please?

Currently I use "C-x C-k" to quit/kill the buffer, but it doesn't
actually kill it cleanly, because when I start gnus afterwards I get
this message showing in the "*Messages*" buffer -

╭────
│gnutls.c: [0] (Emacs) fatal error: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
╰────

This occasionally stops me from sending an email that I've just
written. So far the only workaround that I've found that works, is
to comment out this line from my "init.org"

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; (setq starttls-use-gnutls t
;;       starttls-gnutls-program "/usr/bin/gnutls-cli")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks
Sharon.

I don't use paradox so I can't comment on that, but...

I doubt that this really solves the issue because this setting doesn't
change anything.  t and gnutls-cli are the default values of these two
variables.

Bye,

I've found that this function works extremely well -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun kill-this-buffer ()
    (interactive)
    (kill-buffer (current-buffer)))
  
  (bind-key "C-x C-k" 'kill-this-buffer)
#+END_SRC

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (bind-keys :map paradox-menu-mode-map
             ("q" . kill-this-buffer))
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks all
Sharon.
