Public bug reported: New autopkgtests were added to firefox recently (https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox.xenial/revision/1335).
They use selenium to drive a headless browser. However the tests fail on xenial, because the version of python3-selenium there is too old (it lacks an Option class to specify that firefox should be launched headless, and it fails to find the geckodriver executable anyway). Installing a more recent version with pip makes the tests pass: sudo apt install python3-pip pip install selenium The tests should do that on xenial. ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Olivier Tilloy (osomon) Status: Triaged -- 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/1840276 Title: autopkgtests fail on xenial Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: New autopkgtests were added to firefox recently (https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox.xenial/revision/1335).
