Using Firefox 67.0 in Ubuntu 19.10 (dev) I see that entering 'webcal://test' in the URL bar does produce a prompt to use evolution. So closing this as being fixed. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209048 Title: Suggests using an online service for webcal links instead of evolution Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox-3.0 Using 3.0b4 in Hardy. Enter an url like webcal:/test into the url bar to see the problem. When clicking a webcal url into firefox3, it suggests using an online service even though evolution and its evolution-webcal handler are in the default install. Since it's associated in /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/webcal, Epiphany is the only browser that will use it Shouldn't Firefox ideally know how to read /desktop/gnome/url-handlers for this?
