Public bug reported:
What I expected to happen:
Today I installed all the suggested and recommended updates for Ubuntu, as I
always do when updates pop up. After the updates, while still logged into
Firefox, my right mouse button worked fine! But I did get the notice on each
open Firefox tab that my browser needed to be restarted to complet updates. So
I closed out of Firefox. When I reopened it, I went about my usual activities
expecting full function of mouse and keyboard in Firefox as I have always
enjoyed.
What did happen:
First activity after opening Firefox was to check email. I logged into Google.
On my first 'reply' email, I went to "Select All" which is usually available on
a drop-down menu I receive when right clicking within the field. This time no
menu. I instead highlited the entire text myself then used the keyboard to
delete it. Similarly, when I wanted to copy text and use on Facebook, I had to
highlight it on one tab holding down left mouse and using Ctrl+C, then pasted
it into Facebook using Ctrl+V. When I wanted to save a pic to my harddrive, I
again went to right click to first isolate the image on its own but again, no
drop-down menu when I right clicked. I tried looking on forums about right
mouse not working on updated Firefox and found only older posts that didn't
apply. I've logged on and off Firefox a few times and problem still exists.
