Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to settings and enable the "Clear private data on exit" option
  2. Visit one or more sites
  3. Tap "quit".

Actual results:

the message "clearing private data..." appears
Firefox hangs.

Sometimes it closes after very long time, some other times it hangs forever and I have to go in the applications manager > firefox > force stop > clear data

Even when it hangs forever, Firefox is still usable. I can't tell when it hangs forever and when it closes after a while

Expected results:

the message "clearing private data..." appears just for a few seconds
Firefox closes.
