Public bug reported: Test Case ---------
- Install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome 44.beta - Log out, then log into a non-GNOME desktop like MATE - Open an app that uses portals, like the Firefox Snap - From the app, open the Open dialog What Happens ------------ Nothing for 2 minutes or however long the service timeout takes. After that initial timeout, the filechooser dialogs open like normal. Other Info ---------- This is a regression compared to xdg-desktop-portal-gnome 43. My understanding is that xdg-desktop-portal currently attempts to load the portal backends in alphabetical order. By coincidence, this happens to do what we would expect (gnome, then gtk, kde, lxqt, wlr). It is expected that systems with multiple desktop environments installed will have multiple portal backends installed. These backends should work in any of the desktops. (For instance, maybe MATE users want to have the GTK 4.10 icon view filechooser for their Flatpak/Snap web browser.)
