Package: xmms
Version: 1.2.7-1
Severity: important
xmms spawns zombies, i.e. processes that look like this:
7358 ? Z 0:00 [xmms <defunct>]
More and more of these appear over time, it seems like about one or two
each time it starts or stops playing, or switches track. Eventually
there are so many of these that there is breakage until xmms is
closed, though it _does_ clean them all up when it closes (by breakage,
I mean being unable to launch anything new due to the error "fork:
Device or resource temporarily unavailable" or similar).
This happens no matter what output plugin I use (which is a relief,
because I maintain xmmsarts...)
