Bug Description
Binary package hint: thunar
If I start an application by dubbleclicking an icon in thunar, after closing this application it leaves a zombie process. The parent process of this zombie is always 'Thunar --daemon' or - after restarting thunar - just 'thunar'. Sending 'kill -CHLD <PID-of-thunar>' does not help. After restarting thunar all the zombies are gone - as expected. I experience this mostly with gnome applications but sometimes with others too. This behaviour always shows up with totem and eog, often with file-roller and sometimes with others.

As I see know, the problem seems to be known to xfce-/thunar- developers. There is an entry in xfce's bug tracking system: bugzilla. xfce.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 2983

While I can't find anything in the latest official thunar changelog, Mandriva seems to have fixed this: rpmfind. net/linux/ RPM/mandriva/ devel/cooker/ x86_64/ media/contrib/ release/ thunar- 0.8.0-8mdv2008. 0.x86_64. html (second entry in the changelog)
