Description

Popen call without wait() or commuciate() causes processes after terminal quit.

BTW: gnome-terminal does not show anyway when configured as terminal.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search for subprocess.Popen calls in the codebase and ensure that after the process is spawned, there is a corresponding .wait() or .communicate() call to avoid zombie processes.
