I have found a command which will cause a process to turn into a zombie
process:

dash -c '(sleep 3 & sleep 6)'

If "sleep 3" finishes it will turn into a zombie process and only close
if "sleep 6" finishes. With bash all is working fine (but bash is
creating "bash -c (sleep 3 & sleep 6)" 2 times) but the most
applications are using sh (which is a symlink to dash).

** Package changed: bash (Ubuntu) => dash (Ubuntu)
