[Pkg-anonymity-tools] Bug#768857: torbrowser-launcher: processes do not terminate on exit and tor browser cannot be reopened

[Giorgos Pallas]

Package: torbrowser-launcher
Version: 0.1.6-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Problem cannot always be reproduced, but one out of about 4 time opening tor browser, exit will be unclean (processes do not die):

1. open tor browser
2. do some surfing
2. close tor browser

On close, the window disappears but even after 10 minutes, those processes remain:

13.1  4.8 669328 194916 ?       Sl   19:24   0:53 ./firefox --class Tor Browser -profile TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default

13.1  4.8 669328 194916 ?       Sl   19:24   0:53 ./firefox --class Tor Browser -profile TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default
0.0  0.1 451144  7620 ?        Sl   Nov08   0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-udisks2-volume-monitor

And so clicking again on tor browser icon gives the well known message about
firefox already running etc. After manually killing processes, tor browser
can be used again.

Thanks, 
Giorgos
