Mutate: One application may be running #53

Hello! I tried Mutate on Ubuntu Mate 14.04 and Korora 21 (Cinnamon), and I have the same problem on both. 2015-04-05 23 41 15

I just run Mutate once using menu or hotkey and it's works, but next time it says "One application may be running...". May be I misunderstood how to use it, some default hotkeys or something? Can you explain? Thanks!

Same problem on Fedora 21.

Are you sure it's a bug? did you check with 'ps ax | grep mutate' that is not actually running?

ctrl+d is the default shortcut

It looks like Mutate doesn't clean up its temp files in /tmp when killed. These are used to check if Mutate is already running, and if they still exist you'll see that error next time you try to run it.
