Description Giuseppe Ghibò 2022-04-22 23:08:23 CEST
Description of problem:

As leftover of bug #23762, remained the package motif. An xinitrc.d/ scripts startup is causing zombies.

Solution:

The fix is contained in current cauldron version (motif-2.3.8-5.mga9)
which just need to be rebuilt for mga8.

Could you explain how to check for this problem, and why it is important to fix it in mga8?
Comment 3 Giuseppe Ghibò 2022-04-28 10:58:41 CEST
Christiaan, you are right (in fact you find weird that a php mga6 bug is triggered by motif ;-)), of course the bug leftover is #27362 not #23762. Sorry for the typo. There is a better description there.

As for fixing, with the bug there, running ps -ef for getting list of processes, you get something listed like:

[xmbind.sh] <defunct>

while with this bug fixed, there is no more such defunct process.
