Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/3458

As the title said exactly ! I tried both from terminal & from .desktop file, the same ! Is this normal or a bug ? With Firefox & other applications like Transmission sandbox disappear from --list when application exited ...

I'm with version 0.9.62 on Fedora 32 X64 bit Cinnamon edition.

Maybe it is #928. What shows firejail --tree?

@rusty-snake
Yes it is #928 - see the following:

$ firejail --tree
2341:myusername::firejail thunderbird
2345:myusername::firejail thunderbird
2540:myusername::gpg-agent --homedir /home/myusername/.gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon

This is very bad & should be fixed !
This is what make me afraid from using "sudo fcg"

Feel free to close this bug & mark it as a duplicate ...

Hi all. It seem to be fixed - at least for Thunderbird ! No when I closed Thunderbird after launching it by "firejail thunderbird" I will receive at the end the following in the terminal:

"Parent is shutting down, bye..."

This is very good !
