Package: firefox
Version: 95.0.1-1
Severity: normal

Opening an unsupported text/* file with Emacs silently fails.
For instance, on https://homepages.loria.fr/PZimmermann/CORE-MATH/
the link "glibc" for acos / binary32

  https://homepages.loria.fr/PZimmermann/CORE-MATH/acosf-v1.patch

is served as text/x-diff (as seen with wget, since this is not clear
with Firefox). Since text/x-diff is not supported, Firefox proposes
to open it with

  Emacs (Terminal) (default)

but nothing happens, not even an error message.

If Firefox is started in a terminal, I can see:

Can't locate utf8.pm:   /usr/share/perl5/utf8.pm: Permission denied at 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/urxvt/urxvt.pm line 463.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/urxvt/urxvt.pm 
line 463.
Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.
urxvt: unable to initialize perl-interpreter, continuing without.

Indeed there is no such file "/usr/share/perl5/utf8.pm". So there
is something wrong with the default Firefox configuration and error
reporting.
