[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1427360] Re: firefox doesn't open an url as argument
I thought it was thunderbird failing to pass a URL to firefox. So, I tried to report a bug using `ubuntu_bug thunderbird`and this operation failed in the same way. It appears that firefox discards the URL passed to it from anybody since the "upgrade" to version 36. I would have thought that URL passing would have been a component of regression testing prior to any release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1427360 Title: firefox doesn't open an url as argument Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since few days, Firefox doesn't open the url from Thunderbird or the XFCE desktop.

We've seen this too (on Ubuntu T). It started happening immediately after the upgrade to Firefox 36. Other web browsers are unaffected; e.g., if I set my preferred web browser to Lynx and click on a URL in Thunderbird the link is being followed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1427360 Title: firefox doesn't open an url as argument Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since few days, Firefox doesn't open the url from Thunderbird or the XFCE desktop.
