I confirm that xdg-open snap://moon-buggy works with gnome-software
3.22.6-0ubuntu2 in Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 which was the last thing needed
for this bug to be marked verified.

14:01  rbasak: good catch, it was fixed in gnome-software
3.23.90 but zesty is still at 3.22.5 so we need to backport that patch

OK, let's remove verification-done for now to prevent accidents.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1621971] Re: Add handler for snap: URLs

[Jeremy Bicha]

I think the issue is that because there are two .desktops that register
"snap://" when ubuntu-software is installed, the system needs to be told
which one to use.

I agree with marking this verification-done and hope that the SRU for
desktop-file-utils is handled quickly so it doesn't confuse users who
think that snap:// URLs should start working as soon as this update is
installed.

[Robert Ancell]

Sorry, I thought I had updated the description, it should read:

$ gnome-software snap://moon-buggy

I'm not 100% sure the correct way to make the snap links work by
default. It works if you edit /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
(from desktop-file-utils). I'll do a separate SRU for this change.

[Mateusz Stachowski]

I couldn't get it to work in 16.04.2 and 16.10.

Also I noticed that there is a new package snapd-xdg-open. It wasn't
installed so I thought that's what is missing. But after installing that
package I still only got errors.

same error.

  We want GNOME Software to be able to open snap:// URLs. This allows us to 
embed links in webpages to snaps (like apt://).

  [Test Case]
  1. Run xdg-open snap://moon-buggy

  Observed result:
  Get error about unknown URL.

  Expected result:
  GNOME Software is opened showing the information for moon-buggy and ability 
to install.

  [Regression Potential]
  Backported change from master has potential to break other URL handling. 
Other URLs tested (apt:// appstream://) to confirm they still work.

[Jeremy Bicha]

It works for me with Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.2. After installing the updated
gnome-software and gnome-software-common, I ran pkill gnome-software (or
you could log out and back in to stop the gnome-software background
service). And then ran xdg-open snap://moon-buggy

For the record I've done a "update-desktop-database" and it made no
difference.

Ooops, hit post before saying:

I haven't set this to verification-failed yet, because maybe I'm doing

[Matthias Klumpp]

IMHO this is really unnecessary, the only thing it adds is a snappy-
proprietary URL handler, while Snappy could just as well use the
appstream:// handler (it would just need to search for the AppStream-IDs
Snappy provides then, and could have a fallback to names)
