Title:
  unity8 leaks file descriptors

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in mir package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  unity8 leaks file descriptors in various cases, causing the process to
  eventually fail (hang and/or restart). These leaks were first
  discovered during investigations of https://bugs.launchpad.net
  /canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1491566 , but it's not clear yet
  if they are indeed responsible for that particular bug. In any case,
  this is a critical problem, and should be addressed independently.

  The fds are leaked in various scenarios, including:

  * opening/closing apps
  * switching between apps
  * locking the screen
