Out of curiosity, I tried gdb on your example, running in uname -a:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
which is puri.sm PureOS, a version of debian, with Wayland and Gnome, and tilix as terminal.

(gdb) quit
A debugging session is active.
Inferior 1 [process 22900] will be killed.
Quit anyway? (y or n) y

No time to pursue it further, but it was there in another terminal window, so I thought
