New issue 19260 by [email protected]: “First run” should be tied to profile, not plist http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=19260 Substitute Google Chrome.app, ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome, and ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.Chrome.plist as needed. What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Launch Chromium.app. If you've never launched it before, get past the first run window. Use it for a while. 2. Quit Chromium. 3. Remove your profile, ~/Library/Application Support/Chromium. 4. Launch Chromium.app. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expect: first run window, offering to import bookmarks and set the browser as the default. Observe: no first run window. How are you supposed to import bookmarks? Because the bookmarks live in the profile, it would make sense to tie first- run to the profile as well. The first-run behavior is actually triggered by the plist, ~/Library/Preferences/org.chromium.Chromium.plist, but this plist does not contain the bookmarks. If you remove the plist instead of the profile, you will see the first run window offering to perform the import. If you proceed with a bookmark import, what happens to your existing bookmarks? See also bug 19204 (ideally, the Breakpad switch would be in the profile and not the plist, and for Google Chrome builds the Breakpad option should be given at first run). 4.0.202.0 r23217 -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
