Hm, does really KDE Plasma access Firefox profile and searches it for
anything? That's interesting. Can you point me to any info about it?
It looks like it copies Firefox's *.sqlite databases to
~/.cache/bookmarksrunner on every user login and then uses them:
$ ls ~/.cache/bookmarksrunner/ | grep firefox
bookmarkrunnerfirefoxdbfile.sqlite
bookmarkrunnerfirefoxfavdbfile.sqlite
KRunner-Favicons-firefox-default
I see. I don't think it's useful for gnome search as it uses live data
(also from recently visited URL) and also sorts results for popularity.
It should give you the same results as writing directly to Firefox URL bar.
This feature looks more and more confusing.
How do the search providers (be it Gnome's or Plasma's variant) decide
which Firefox Profile to scrape?
The searches are received from the first launched Firefox instance and
its profile. Due to Firefox remote service usually all your FF windows
use the same profile and there's usually only one profile per user.
So usually you'll get search results from the recent Firefox you're running.
