Summary: Wine apps executed from a dynamically mounted device leave open files after being closed. Product: Wine Version: 1.1.42 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: marc@marcchamberlin.com
I am running openSuSE 11.2 with Wine-1.1.42 and use the PortableApps off of a USB Passport disk drive. I am noticing that when I try to close applications such as Firefox or Thunderbird, also running under Wine, that the processes for Thunderbird, Firefox, PortableApps, and Wineserver are leaving files open and not properly closing them (Observed with lsof /media/My\ Passport after closing the apps) This in turn prevents the disk drive from being able to be dismounted and forces me to kill the associated processes. Of course that is dangerous and can lead to file corruption.
From my observations, this is only happening when running an app under Wine,
when the app is executed from a dynamically mounted device. It does not occur when the app is executed from a permanently mounted disk drive...
