[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1981163]
It's been 6 months since this bug was assigned. Perhaps it could be reassigned to someone who has the time to look at the bug and fix it? Much appreciated.

I came to report this bug but found it is already here. I am on linux (Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS) and am using Thunderbird 102.2.2, although this was also present in version 91 (I only upgraded recently). I have Thunderbird set to use the system PDF application (in this case Evince) for reading PDF files, which works perfectly for reading messages sent to me. However, when I attach a PDF document to an email and try to open it to check something, it only gives me the option for Firefox. Fortunately, Firefox can display PDF files but it is not the behaviour I expected.Thanks for digging into it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981163 Title: [upstream] In Compose window, if a PDf is joined and clicked to open, Thunderbird launches Firefox instead of Evince Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: In Progress Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Thunderbird on Ubuntu Gnome, I set Evince as default program to open pdf files from Thunderbird.

Open the pdf attachment (through double click or context menu). ## Result Get popup message ``` You have chosen to open: .pdf which is: HTML document ``` So the type is HTML, which means you'll likely get a recommendation to open in a browser, rather than the default pdf reader. Also get the printed error message ``` JavaScript error: resource://pdf.js/PdfStreamConverter.jsm, line 140: TypeError: can't access property "getInterface", requestor is null ``` *Note: opening attachments when viewing a message (not composition), in either a tab or a separate window works fine.* ## Expected The file to be treated as a PDF and no error message. ## Origin? Looking in `PdfStreamConverter.jsm`, the error is from `getDOMWindow` (https://searchfox.org/mozilla- central/rev/9ae77e4ce3378bd683ac9a86b729ea6b6bd22cb8/toolkit/components/pdfjs/content/PdfStreamConverter.jsm#136), which is called by `proxy.onStopRequest`. The problem seems to be that both `aChannel.notificationCallbacks` and `aChannel.loadGroup.notificationCallbacks` are `null`. *Note: opening an attachment in a viewed message (not composing), does not seem to pass through the same code.* On the the thunderbird side, I've tracked down the trigger for the error to `openURI` in `MsgComposeCommands.js` (https://searchfox.org/comm- central/rev/9bc3ba1480090c4e89d5152e458f19c79b3d6ac4/mail/components/compose/content/MsgComposeCommands.js#7171). I couldn't really pinpoint the origin much beyond this because the code is passing through interfaces (and probably between c++ and javascript), and I'm not familiar enough to navigate this. Why is it treated as HTML instead? I think the reason the document is treated as as HTML is a side effect of the JavaScript error. Also in `PdfStreamConverter.jsm`, the `onStartRequest` method changes the `contentType` from `application/pdf` to `text/html` (https://searchfox.org/mozilla- central/rev/9ae77e4ce3378bd683ac9a86b729ea6b6bd22cb8/toolkit/components/pdfjs/content/PdfStreamConverter.jsm#1231). Supposedly, this is done to break some loop. My guess is that it is meant to be set back to `application/pdf` during `onStopRequest`, but this method errors before it can do so.

This sounds very much like bug #1945741, which was an upstream bug (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1734428), but was marked as fixed 9 months ago. So it's probably a slightly different variation of that bug. Would you mind filing a new bug report at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Thunderbird, mentioning that other upstream bug, and sharing the link to it here? ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #1734428 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1734428 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981163 Title: In Compose window, if a PDf is joined and clicked to open, Thunderbird launches Firefox instead of Evince Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In Thunderbird on Ubuntu Gnome, I set Evince as default program to open pdf files from Thunderbird.
