Title:
  firefox fails to use the default profile from classic snaps

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  Fix Released
Status in snapd:
  Invalid
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I've recently made a clean install of Ubuntu 19.10 (development release) and 
have noticed that whenever I try to open a link from one of the snap apps 
(being it Slack or Skype) the links although opened in the default browser are 
being opened in a separate session of the web browser.

  I am using Firefox and it is installed as a regular deb package
  (default).

  This is wrong and causes issues with history, sessions and settings
  not being shared between these windows. Now I have the default browser
  I use + a separate session for Slack and another one for Skype. Not to
  mention Firefox also acts just like another Slack/Skype window so dash
  displays these as two instances of the same app.

  To reproduce:
  * Install Ubuntu 19.10 (not sure if upgrade from 19.04 would lead to the same 
behaviour).
  * Confirm FFox is installed as a regular deb package.
  * Install I suppose almost any snap app, although I've only reproduced this 
with Slack and Skype and haven't tried to install other apps.

  System monitor also seems to be installed but when trying to open links from 
the about window - translators - individual names, it seems to do nothing.
  On the other hand Gnome calculator which is also installed as a snap package 
opens the link in the about dialog correctly = in my default browser session.

  ```
  :~# which gnome-calculator 
  /snap/bin/gnome-calculator
  ```

  Thank you very much for looking into that.

The different environment name is one thing. But because we no longer
check that the name is "correct" any snap app calling a non-snap Firefox
will now cause Firefox to think it is running as a snap again.

1. Why are you setting SNAP_NAME?
2. That made it so we don't check SNAP_NAME at all (only SNAP_INSTANCE_NAME) so 
I don't think it should have affected this (unless I'm reading my own code 
wrong :) )

This is back. `SNAP_NAME=foo firefox` (when Firefox is not installed as
a snap) opens up the wrong profile in FF 104, and it appears the check

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I've recently made a clean install of Ubuntu 19.10 (development release) and 
have noticed that whenever I try to open a link from one of the snap apps 
(being it Slack or Skype) the links although opened in the default browser are 
being opened in a separate session of the web browser.

  I am using Firefox and it is installed as a regular deb package
  (default).

  This is wrong and causes issues with history, sessions and settings
  not being shared between these windows. Now I have the default browser
  I use + a separate session for Slack and another one for Skype. Not to
  mention Firefox also acts just like another Slack/Skype window so dash
  displays these as two instances of the same app.

  To reproduce:
  * Install Ubuntu 19.10 (not sure if upgrade from 19.04 would lead to the same 
behaviour).
  * Confirm FFox is installed as a regular deb package.
  * Install I suppose almost any snap app, although I've only reproduced this 
with Slack and Skype and haven't tried to install other apps.

  System monitor also seems to be installed but when trying to open links from 
the about window - translators - individual names, it seems to do nothing.
  On the other hand Gnome calculator which is also installed as a snap package

2020-12-04 Thread Dtownsend
I vaguely recall some plan to distribute devedition as a separate snap
at some point which this would break but it looks like that hasn't
happened so this is fine. I really wish there was a sane API to detect
this though, environment variable detection always seemed likely to be
flakey.

Thanks for triaging Virginia. Unfortunately the patch¹ I submitted

Hi Oliver,

Thank you for your report.

I was unable to reproduce this issue on Firefox Release version 81.0
(64-bit) Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical 1.0 , but I did reproduce
the issue by downloading Firefox Nightly 84.0a1 (2020-11-14) (64-bit)
and installing it on a different location (for example in Desktop Folder
"Nightly").

I'll add this ticket to the Widget GTK component in the hope their team
can take a look at this and share their feedback.

Regards,
Virginia

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML,

Steps to reproduce:

It's been reported several times on https://forum.snapcraft.io/ that when 
invoked from an application packaged as a classic snap¹ to open a hyperlink, 
firefox installed as a deb package (on Debian/Ubuntu) opens with the wrong 
profile by default.
This issue was investigated in https://launchpad.net/bugs/1835024, and we found 
out that the culprit is nsToolkitProfileService::IsSnapEnvironment()².

To reproduce the issue, ensure that a firefox window is open, then from
a terminal run `SNAP_NAME=foobar firefox http://example.org`.


¹ https://snapcraft.io/docs/snap-confinement
² 
https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/profile/nsToolkitProfileService.cpp#l1838


Actual results:

This opens the requested URL (http://example.org) in a separate firefox
window, with a different profile than that of the already open firefox
window.


Expected results:

This should have opened the requested URL in a new tab in the same
window that was already open.

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I've recently made a clean install of Ubuntu 19.10 (development release) and 
have noticed that whenever I try to open a link from one of the snap apps 
(being it Slack or Skype) the links although opened in the default browser are 
being opened in a separate session of the web browser.

  I am using Firefox and it is installed as a regular deb package
  (default).

  This is wrong and causes issues with history, sessions and settings
  not being shared between these windows. Now I have the default browser
  I use + a separate session for Slack and another one for Skype. Not to
  mention Firefox also acts just like another Slack/Skype window so dash
  displays these as two instances of the same app.

  To reproduce:
  * Install Ubuntu 19.10 (not sure if upgrade from 19.04 would lead to the same 
behaviour).
  * Confirm FFox is installed as a regular deb package.
  * Install I suppose almost any snap app, although I've only reproduced this 
with Slack and Skype and haven't tried to install other apps.

  System monitor also seems to be installed but when trying to open links from 
the about window - translators - individual names, it seems to do nothing.
  On the other hand Gnome calculator which is also installed as a snap package 
opens the link in the about dialog correctly = in my default browser session.

  ```
  :~# which gnome-calculator 
  /snap/bin/gnome-calculator

2020-10-29 Thread Sebastien Bacher
That's a firefox issue, the problem is there
https://sources.debian.org/src/firefox/82.0-1/toolkit/profile/nsToolkitProfileService.cpp/?hl=1840#L1823

The classic snap call the default browser from the system but from the
snap environment that has SNAP_NAME defined or firefox has code to
disable profiles in such cases...

The issue is easy to trigger using the deb, just do 'SNAP_NAME=bug
firefox https://www.ubuntu.com'

** Summary changed:

- Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session
+ firefox fails to use the default profile from classic snaps

** Package changed: xdg-utils (Ubuntu) => firefox (Ubuntu)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2020-07-13 Thread Charles Michael Peszczynski Ritchea
I just wanted to comment that this is more than just Slack "owning" apps
opened from inside Slack. It also messes up the audio/video setup inside
the "owned" app. For example, if I launch snap Slack before Chrome and
try to join a Zoom call from Slack, then my A/V options are limited only
to the built-in devices in my laptop. This makes Zoom unusable for me,
so I have to make sure I always launch Chrome before Slack.

I can confirm that this bug exists on a fresh install of 20.04 as well.

Changing the firefox profile to that of `default-release` for the
firefox session opened via Slack solves the problem but it would be
wonderful if it could work seamlessly out of the box :)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2019-12-13 Thread Michev
I was struggle with the same problem for a several weeks - all urls from snap 
apps were opened in different Firefox instances.
Today I finally figured it out - Open some url from snap app. Navigate this 
instance to `about:profiles` . Make sure that setted as default profile is the 
same as the one when you open Firefox normally. In my case this was 
`default-release` profile. Once you set it as default you are done. All links 
will be opended in your normal Firefox instance.

  Hi,
  I've recently made a clean install of Ubuntu 19.10 (development release) and 
have noticed that whenever I try to open a link from one of the snap apps 
(being it Slack or Skype) the links although opened in the default browser are 
being opened in a separate session of the web browser.

  I am using Firefox and it is installed as a regular deb package
  (default).

  This is wrong and causes issues with history, sessions and settings
  not being shared between these windows. Now I have the default browser
  I use + a separate session for Slack and another one for Skype. Not to
  mention Firefox also acts just like another Slack/Skype window so dash
  displays these as two instances of the same app.

  To reproduce:
  * Install Ubuntu 19.10 (not sure if upgrade from 19.04 would lead to the same 
behaviour).
  * Confirm FFox is installed as a regular deb package.
  * Install I suppose almost any snap app, although I've only reproduced this 
with Slack and Skype and haven't tried to install other apps.

  System monitor also seems to be installed but when trying to open links from 
the about window - translators - individual names, it seems to do nothing.
  On the other hand Gnome calculator which is also installed as a snap package 
opens the link in the about dialog correctly = in my default browser session.

  ```

  Thank you very much for looking into that.

I am unable to reproduce this with the classic slack snap and core
stable (2.42.1) on Ubuntu 19.04. I don't believe that zyga's patch has
been released yet although it is merged so one could test on edge
channel of core/snapd.

2019-10-29 Thread Zygmunt Krynicki
Given Maciek's comment about reproducing this with classic snaps I'm
marking this as confirmed.

Interested parties can keep track of
https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/7659 where this issue may be
resolved for _some_ snaps but if confirmed, the same cause is affecting
all the strictly confined apps.

Marking as confirmed.

2019-10-29 Thread Zygmunt Krynicki
Recently we noticed that XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set to a custom value for
both strictly and classically confined snap applications. It may be the
case that adjusting the runtime directory for a test shows that a remote
window is not opened.

I'm not proposing a solution yet but perhaps we can at least understand
the cause.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2019-10-17 Thread Maciej Borzecki
I could reproduce this problem using 18.04.3 live CD using Slack and
Atom. However, I don't think the problem is caused by snapd.

Slack, Skype and Atom are all classic snaps so they have full access to
the system. With Slack installed, clicking on the 'get started' link was
enough to get another Firefox window open. I collected the strace log. A
relevant piece is here:

10782 execve("/usr/local/sbin/xdg-open", ["xdg-open",

Notice how slack attempts to run xdg-open (and does so successfully at
some point), then it proceeds to run `gio open ..`, and again does that
successfully, finally it just runs firefox with the URL. I believe this
is what triggers the new window to appear.

Another observation for Slack on 18.04 is that gnome-shell groups the
Firefox window *with* the slack one.

I tried diffing the environment between the inside and outside of snap:

However I could still spawn a separate Firefox window using a simple
`gio open http://`.

I've proceeded to install Chromium and set it to be my default browser.
At this point all the links and xdg-open calls I tried would open a new
tab in the current Chromium window.

Perhaps the problem is actually with Firefox and the method it uses to
find out whether there's antoher instance already running.

Ok, gnome-calculator snap seems fixed somehow. But Slack nor Skype still
works. In Skype it crashes its own Firefox instance immediately, trying
to open the browser - so only a crash dialogue gets opened. And in Slack
this still opens in its own instance.

Please try to test this against these Snap apps.

(being it Slack or Skype) the links although opened in the default browser are 
being opened in a separate session of the web browser.

  I am using Firefox and it is installed as a regular deb package
  (default).

  This is wrong and causes issues with history, sessions and settings
  not being shared between these windows. Now I have the default browser
  I use + a separate session for Slack and another one for Skype. Not to
  mention Firefox also acts just like another Slack/Skype window so dash
  displays these as two instances of the same app.

  To reproduce:
  * Install Ubuntu 19.10 (not sure if upgrade from 19.04 would lead to the same 
behaviour).
  * Confirm FFox is installed as a regular deb package.
  * Install I suppose almost any snap app, although I've only reproduced this 
with Slack and Skype and haven't tried to install other apps.

  System monitor also seems to be installed but when trying to open links from 
the about window - translators - individual names, it seems to do nothing.
  On the other hand Gnome calculator which is also installed as a snap package 
opens the link in the about dialog correctly = in my default browser session.

  ```
  :~# which gnome-calculator 
  /snap/bin/gnome-calculator
  ```

  Thank you very much for looking into that.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2019-10-15 Thread Zygmunt Krynicki
Hello

I've tried to reproduce this on a fully up-to-date Ubuntu 19.10 system,
using gnome-calculator. I use firefox as my defualt browser. I clicked
on the credits link in gnome-calculator and I got a new tab in my
existing session.

I'm marking this bug as incomplete. Please clarify if the issue still
persists for you.

** Project changed: snappy => snapd

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2019-09-25 Thread zubozrout
I've just bumped into these two related mentions of the same issue:
https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/slack-opening-file-browser-firefox-and-chrome-in-the-snaps-context/8969
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1827770

The other launchpad report is older, so mine would be a duplicate I
guess. But it is also expired for some reason.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1835024] Re: Links triggered within most snap apps open in a separate browser session

2019-07-02 Thread Oliver Grawert
snapd's userd just calls "xdg-open " in the users session when a
link is clicked, i have opened a task against xdg-utils, it should make
sure to call the right command to open urls in existing browser
sessions.

the opening of "help://" urls via userd is an explicit limitation in
snapd's userd that should get a separate bug so things are not being
mixed here.
