Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580740 Title: [SRU] Cannot open a browser link from a snap that provides a link Status in Snappy: Triaged Status in snapd-xdg-open package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in snapd-xdg-open source package in Xenial: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Links in snaps cannot be opened on the host. [Test Case] Steps to reproduce: - Run `sudo snap install telegram-sergiusens` - Launch telegram-sergiusens.sergiusens (or from the dash) - Receive a link - Try an open the link. The reason for it not working is that there is no browser in ubuntu- core and there is no handler that knows how to redirect this to the classic Ubuntu instance. [Regression Potential] * The fix is a new package to be pulled in by snapd, so there is little risk of regression [Other Info] * snapd-xdg-open is just one piece of two that are needed to fix this bug. The other piece is a fake xdg-open script that is available in the OS snap, which simply makes a D-Bus method invocation to the service in snapd-xdg-open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snappy/+bug/1580740/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators Post to : group.of.nepali.translators@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
