Created attachment 334757 [details] System monitor with 2 yelp process still running after closed Hi, If I close the help center (aka "yelp") it will close but the process will still running. Some process are just harmless zombies but some other consumes a lot of resources (see attachment) (maybe because it increase with time ?). ----- Specifications : Geary 0.11.2 Yelp 3.10.2 OS : - Linux Mint 18 64 bits - kernel 4.4.0-36-generic - Cinnamon 3.0.7 - Locale : french (Tell me if you need more specs/infos)
Hi, thanks for reporting thus bug. I'm inclined to think this is a bug in Yelp rather than Geary, since Geary is simply launching Yelp and asking it to open Geary's help files. In particular, it looks like the same issue as reported when looking at the Calculator docs in Comment 10 of Yelp Bug 744636, so I'm going to mark this as a duplicate. If it turns out that this is a bug specific to Geary's documentation, please do reopen this bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 744636 ***
> Yelp 3.10.2 For future reference, this is an ancient obsolete version not supported anymore by GNOME developers.
Thanks for the info. So I will report this bug to the Linux Mint team so they will provide a newer version. Meanwhile, I will test a newer version as requested in Bug 744636 and will give my feedback on the proper ticket. ;)
