For Windows I'm having a major issue. Clicking any of the items from multiple running profiles from the jump lists is either opening the window in default profile or saying "firefox is already running".
Is there any alternative to -remote? This is the relavent code thats bugging me out: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla- central/source/browser/modules/WindowsJumpLists.jsm#107 You can see I tried to set -no-remote and -remote and -new-instance on these flags none of them work. This is what I mean by multiple profiles in parallel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKw-BNWMyQM -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to emacs24 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1425972 Title: Firefox no longer supports -remote parameter Status in GNU Emacs: Unknown Status in exo: Fix Released Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in Python: New Status in emacs24 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in exo package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in emacs24 source package in Trusty: Triaged Status in exo source package in Trusty: Fix Released Status in firefox source package in Trusty: Fix Released Status in emacs24 source package in Utopic: Won't Fix Status in exo source package in Utopic: Won't Fix Status in firefox source package in Utopic: Fix Released Status in exo package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] As of Firefox version 36, the -remote commandline parameter was dropped. This parameter is used in versions of exo prior to 0.10.3. Because of this, opening any URLs via exo-open will cause a new firefox window to launch at the home screen. As reported, this affects the terminal, ubuntu-bug, xchat, and numerous other applications. [Test Case] 1. Set Firefox as the default web browser in "Preferred Applications". 2. From a terminal, type the following: exo-open "http://www.xfce.org"; Expected: Firefox opens at http://www.xfce.org Actual: Firefox opens at the home page. [Regression Potential] No regressions by this change. This fixes the application call to correctly open URLs. --- [Original Report] When I click a link from an email it does not work any more. Instead of opening the link in a new tab, Firefox opens a new empty window and does not follow the link. If I change the default browser for my desktop from Firefox to Chrome, then Chrome can open the link fine. I have started seeing this today since firefox was upgraded from v35 to 36. My email client is Mozilla thunderbird at the latest stable version.
