Another proof open source never tests their code: Caja

Another proof open source never tests their code: Caja

It's not that I like or dislike some Linux distros, or desktop environments, etc. I am totally impartial and judge them based entirely on user friendliness and quality. When Gnome3 fiasco unfolded, I moved to Mate which was tolerable.

But now I have this mounted CIFS share which I want to unmount. And it would not - device is busy. Busy doing what? Well, lsof would show me that. Piece of cake: lsof shows a dozen instances of bash currently using paths within the mounted share as current directories.

And it immediately dawns on me: it must be Caja leaving behind zombie instances of bash from its non-disableable terminal. Launching another Caja and closing it cleared all those instances. Do they ever test?
