Public bug reported:
I distribute my Zim notebooks with Git on a couple of my computers so
that I can get my data from everywhere.
Today I pulled an updated repository with a new relatively large (about 7 MB)
notebook. In Zim I added it to the notebooks list, but when I tried to open it,
Zim stuck. After about 30 minutes I decided that there is no hope and tried to
kill it with "killall zim". This returned "no process found". Then I tried:
-------------------------------------
ps aux --forest | grep zim
-------------------------------------
The output was:
-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------
So I tried "kill 14210", and that throwed me a pop up named "Looks like you
found a bug" with the following contents:
-------------------------------------

After "kill 14210" all stucked Zim windows disappeared, but "ps aux --forest"
still gave me:

Just in case I killed 14220 and 14294 without any consequent warnings. After
that opening Zim and the new notebook was just OK.
