[Bug]: Android 12 Phantom Processes Killed "[Process completed (signal 9) - press Enter]" #2366

Problem description

I get a message saying [Process completed (signal 9) - press Enter] at, seemingly, random intervals. Once I press Enter, Termux closes. This may happen while I am running a Python script or simply under the "Welcome to Termux!" text after leaving Termux idle for a while (leaving the app/turning off the screen) and not having run any commands.

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

I upgraded my Pixel 3a phone to Android 12 and downloaded Termux from F-Droid as well as Termux:API. I did the termux-setup-storage command and gave the app unrestricted battery usage under the Android Apps settings. Lastly, I installed Python using pkg install python.

What is the expected behavior?

Previously, on Android 11, I had installed Termux from the Google Play Store. Not once did I ever get that [Process completed (signal 9) - press Enter] message. I was able to leave Termux running in the background indefinitely.

System information

  • Termux application version:
    0.117
  • Android OS version:
    12
  • Device model:
    PIxel 3a
