I just ran into this with Contacts. The lock file was created in April but removing it restored the app. Seems it got corrupted on a recent run. I was testing startup time and opening and closing the apps.
Do we have any line on a fix for this? or is it no longer present for 5.6? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1576989 Title: stale lock files freeze apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1576989/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
