Public bug reported: The request is to add the new webextensions portal which is up for review upstream on https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705
The patch to add to the package would be https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705.patch The code has been written by James from the Desktop Team and reviewed by Olivier from Desktop and got a security review from Alex. The regression potential is null since that's a new feature The code is needed for the firefox messaging protocol to keep working which is seen as an important feature that would regress in the deb to snap transition otherwise. The feature has been discussed on https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/native- messaging-support-in-strictly-confined-browser-snaps Olivier is working on getting the firefox side of the changes ready but those aren't part of this FFe since they will be integrated as the firefox snap gets updated ** Affects: xdg-desktop-portal (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Invalid ** Description changed: The request is to add the new webextensions portal which is up for review upstream on https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705 - The patch to add to the package would be + The patch to add to the package would be https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705.patch The code has been written by James from the Desktop Team and reviewed by Olivier from Desktop and got a security review from Alex.
