Sorry, I thought I had updated the description, it should read: $ gnome-software snap://moon-buggy
I'm not 100% sure the correct way to make the snap links work by default. It works if you edit /usr/share/applications/defaults.list (from desktop-file-utils). I'll do a separate SRU for this change. ** Description changed: [Impact] We want GNOME Software to be able to open snap:// URLs. This allows us to embed links in webpages to snaps (like apt://). [Test Case] - 1. Run xdg-open snap://moon-buggy + 1. Run gnome-software snap://moon-buggy Observed result: Get error about unknown URL. Expected result: GNOME Software is opened showing the information for moon-buggy and ability to install. [Regression Potential] Backported change from master has potential to break other URL handling. Other URLs tested (apt:// appstream://) to confirm they still work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1621971 Title: Add handler for snap: URLs Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in gnome-software source package in Yakkety: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] We want GNOME Software to be able to open snap:// URLs.
