> Is this a regression from a Firefox version adopting a new portal API?
Kind of, it's a regression from us removing a workaround for the lack of such an API, because it slowed down startup by doing synchronous dbus queries. Unfortunately, without that API, on snap we can't tell reliably whether something is a known protocol or not, so we have to assume it is... I did test ubuntu, but of course this only manifests itself under snap :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xdg-desktop-portal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2116951 Title: [SRU] Typing query in address bar with colon (:) triggers SystemHandler instead of search Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in xdg-desktop-portal package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xdg-desktop-portal source package in Jammy: In Progress Status in xdg-desktop-portal source package in Noble: In Progress Status in xdg-desktop-portal source package in Plucky: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Typing query in Firefox' address bar with colon (:) always triggers the SystemHandler instead of search.

[Regression potential] Regressions might appear as in applications that use the portal to handle URIs, as a failed or incorrect identification to handle a given URI. Say, mailto:[email protected] should invoke an email handler with said email address as recipient.
