[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1981148] Re: Focusing the filename in GTK's portal file dialog triggers search
On an Ubuntu 22.04 (newly updated from 18.04) box I got Firefox and
Chromium browser back to using the good, system SaveAs dialog box
instead of the horrid (((search box focus grabber and almost impossible
to change file name from the default))) dialog box by doing this:
`sudo snap install snapd`
This version of snapd, 2.38.3, apparently overrides the apt-installed
snapd version 2.38.
That the snap version of snapd wasn't installed ("`snap list`" did not
list it) was the glaring difference between the bad box and a laptop
that did not have the problem.

that would be a lost cause.

The snap version of Firefox that my Ubuntu has decided to install despite my

4) following 3.1:

search bar and the dialogue for some reason tries to search for the entered
letters on the drive. I can click back to focus on the filename bar, sometimes
I can manage to type one or two letters, before the focus jumps, again.
This does not happen with the version I installed using apt, but which
repeatedly gets removed by the Ubuntu updating process, to install the
snap version, which sadly never seems to work without problems.
