Unknown program not responding

Asked by tadiv

This issue started for me yesterday. I get this if all I do is boot then wait a few minutes and choose to shutdown. I have captured a ps -ef as well as a screen snap of the "A program is still running:" and in the box "Unknown Not responding" and a message that says "Waiting for program to finish. Interrupting may cause you to lose work." with options to "Lock Screen" or "Cancel" or "Shutdown anyway"...

Here is the result of my "ps -ef" - note this was just after booting - no apps started by me manually taking an action on the system...

Based upon a previous problem, I tried the following, but still got the box at shutdown:

tadiv@tadiv-desktop:~$ sudo killall oowriter
[sudo] password for tadiv:
oowriter: no process found
tadiv@tadiv-desktop:~$ sudo killall firefox
firefox: no process found
tadiv@tadiv-desktop:~$

I didn't expect anything different since as I noted, I get this even if all I do is boot, wait a few minutes, then shutdown...

I suspect strongly Evolution.
It needs to synchronize with mail provider, and sometimes is stuck in this job.

There were 3 evolution items in my ps -ef list after I booted and saw this (besides the grep) -- I killed them and still get the pop-up box...

Here are the results of a ps -ef after I killed the Evolution processes - the unknown program still shows up at shutdown/reboot...

OK - so I spent some time gonig over the history of installations around the time I started to have this problem - it took a while, but I found the offending program - it was "tangerine" - once I removed this package, the problem went away...

Should I close this now, or should it remain open so as to generate a bug?
