Description Richard Jasmin 2015-07-12 07:51:16 UTC
Description of problem:
periodically icecat suffers from a firefox main() problem: processes are still running beyond application close.This causes the dreaded "firefox is already running, please close it or reboot." message.Looking at top shows no icecat processes, yet killing it reveals no error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
21

How reproducible:
sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open icecat
2. close it
3. try to open it again


Actual results:
process has zombied itself...MMMMM.

Expected results:
icecat should close everything and free itself when closed.

That is, you use IceCat but Fedora shows you as it's Firefox already running?

Try to use icecat-31.7 on Fedora 21 and see if this problem persists: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=10337326
