Description Antonio Xu 2004-07-21 10:56:32 UTC 
login as new user, start evolution, logout
login to CDE session as a different user 
ps -ef - BUG  bonobo-activation-server process is still running.

If evolution had not been run this bug does not exist.
Comment 1 Antonio Xu 2004-07-21 11:09:45 UTC 
In fact, this bug is caused by Evolution, when Evolution shell component quit,
it will try to unregister a null CORBA_Object (Evolution Shell) in
bonobo-activation, then bonobo-activation will try to remove the reference of
the shell component form the list of active servers, definitely
bonobo-activation cannot find out the object and remove it, but
bonobo-activation still reduce the count of active servers, this wrong count of
active servers is the root cause of this bug. I know I should fix this bug in
Evolution, but I still think BAS need a little improvement. So I have created a
patch for BAS.
