New submission from Jeremy Attali <jeremy.att...@gmail.com>: In a pure Wayland environment (without xwayland), the DISPLAY environment variable is not present. Therefore the call to `xdg-settings get default-browser` is not made. So the webbrowser behaviour is different between X11 and Wayland environment. I'm working on a fix, should submit a GitHub PR soon.
``` ❯ export | grep DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 ❯ python -c "import webbrowser; print(webbrowser.get())" <webbrowser.GenericBrowser object at 0x7f6f1b755160> ``` ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 369872 nosy: Jeremy Attali priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Allow pure Wayland to get default XDG webbrowser type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40767> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
