nautilus multiple process

[Kjell L.]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Sometimes nautilus spawns endless subprocess which all are zombies.
It is very hard to notice unless you have a cpu meter to check when it is happening.

Do you have any steps on how to reproduce that behavior? just describing something is not enough for us to try to reproduce. Thanks in advance.

Could be a dup of #741978 . Since xmonad's spawn function passes too /bin/sh. Strange thing is that I never had this problem before.
