Tagging @refi64 in case this is a zypak issue, not sure who's a maintainer/watches this repo.
Well...this is certainly odd. I had seen something like this and fixed it previously with a new Zypak release around...a month or so ago, have you updated the apps in question since then?
Yep, they've both been updated within the last few weeks:
$ flatpak list --columns=application,version | grep -Ei 'signal|joplin'
net.cozic.joplin_desktop 1.6.8
org.signal.Signal 1.39.6
At this point the problem is persistent and annoying enough that (now that I've identified the cause) I'll probably just drop any Electron flatpak apps and install them via some other method if this is not resolvable, unfortunately.
Sorry for the delays, this should be fixed now in Zypak master, and I'll make a new stable release before the end of the month. I'll re-open this until then, though, so you know when the fix is widely available.
@refi64 Thank you so much for the update! Really glad to hear it was addressable (and not something weird happening with my own configuration :) ).
Just merged in the latest version, should come down to the individual apps on their next updates!
Hi there, I've noticed something strange about a few flatpak apps I have installed. Every time I close them, they seem to leave an orphaned process behind. Over time, these build up:
In the above screenshot, you can see one instance of
org.signal.Signal
running undergnome-shell
. Above it are the orphaned processes. Thebwrap
processes in question arebwrap --args 33 signal
orbwrap --args 34 signal
, and thezypak-sandbox
children of the latter are/app/Signal/chrome-sandbox /app/Signal/signal-desktop --type=zygote
. I've also observed leakingbwrap xdg-dbus-proxy
processes (bwrap --args 33 (or 34) xdg-dbus-proxy --args=36
), but maybe this is a side effect of the zypak processes not being terminated?I've observed this issue in
org.signal.Signal
andnet.cozic.joplin_desktop
from flathub. It doesn't appear to happen with any non-Electron-based flatpak apps. I don't have any other Electron-based flatpak apps to try, but I could investigate if further info is needed. This is on Ubuntu 20.04 (gnome-shell 3.36.4), Flatpak 1.6.5.
