When I use firefox-bin and close the program it hangs in the background and doesn't completely close, the gui disappears as you would expect but the process still runs. I don't get this with firefox that I compiled. It happens with a new profile and in safe mode with no plugins/addons.
I don't know how to troubleshoot this, I don't see anything different in the terminal from one or the other (-bin or compiled). I think it is related to gmail though, it doesn't always hang but it seems that if I have gmail open the firefox process hangs.
