This is different to the old bug. Prior to the recent change to xdg- email, simple scan "send by email" was working fine.
I think that the problem is because xdg-email assembles command line arguments such as -attach to form a mailto: URL and passes that to run_thunderbird, which recently got changed to drop the attachment field from the mailto: url (I think on the assumption that the mailto: url could only come from a browser click). The proper fix would probably be to break any command line mailto: URL down into component parts and drop any "attach" argument before reassembling as today, and reinstate the code removed in the recent change. In the above simple-scan bug report I added a patch which just reinstated the original code but only if the caller is not Chrome/Chromium as those are the only browsers in question in my environment (Firefox appears to call Thunderbird directly). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909941 Title: xdg-email changes break simple-scan email functionality To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-utils/+bug/1909941/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
