Bug#876523: plasma-workspace: Processes hanging when plasma_waitforname is called in the background
Package: plasma-workspace
Version: 5.10.5-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
this bug arises about 2 weeks ago with an update of Debian Sid.
I found out that processes are always hanging for about a minute if plasma_waitforname is called in the background.
Therefore my system spotty is very, very slow.
That happens for example at :
Starting the system after graphical logging (3 minutes instead of 10 seconds)
Starting opera (1 minute instead of 2 seconds)
Starting digikam (1 minute instead of 2 seconds)
Saving an image with digikam (30 seconds instead of 1 second)
Importing pictures from the camera with digikam
Deleting an event with recurrence in korganizer
Opening a printer dialog in okular
If doing (sometimes multiple) a "killall plasma_waitforname" processes continue immediately.
I removed plasma-workspace and have a speedy system again.
Please don't wonder about the last step. I'm using XFCE and some KDE applications.
For test purposes I started Plasma and LXDE. The problem there exists too.
With best regards,
Andreas
