You've done a lot of testing and narrowed down a set of conditions that tickles this particular issue. i.e. Wayland / Chrome / Flatpak Evolution. It's not an edge case as this seems like it could be a fairly common combination. Presumably your first port of call should be to file a bug in your distro bug tracker in case there are distro specific issues and to allow them to verify the issue.

Re: [Evolution] Potential Issue caused by Update
Ok, It is Wayland. Prior to the recent update to 3.44.4 everything was running fine using Wayland but mailto is no go on Wayland now. Tried a fourth device that never had Evolution on it with a fresh install of Flatpak and mailto didn't work. I swapped over to X11 (which I should have done WA sooner due to the display server) and mailto works properly with some canberra gtk errors in the terminal. Swapped my Pop OS device to x11 after a reboot and mailto works again. So definitely a Wayland issue on the latest build. May just have to live with it since I use fractional scaling. -Original Message- From: Milan Crha via evolution-list Reply-To: Milan Crha To: evolution-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [Evolution] Potential Issue caused by Update Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2022 18:16:40 +0200 On Wed, 2022-08-24 at 17:17 +0200, Michael Kenny via evolution-list wrote: > Chrome does not like something in the latest Flatpak of Evolution.

You said it works fine everywhere else, thus this is a problem in the way the Chrome runs the Evolution. It can be it runs it in an environment where the DISPLAY variable is missing. I do not understand why it's doing that for the Flatpak and not for the native app, but it can be just another (Flatpak?) quirk somewhere under the hood. Maybe flatpak package had been updated? Or the new build hardened some flags, hard to guess. With respect of getting the older version of the Evolution from the Flathub.org, you can get list of the available versions with: $ flatpak remote-info flathub org.gnome.Evolution// --log | more which gives you a list of the commits and you pick one and then apply it with: $ flatpak update --commit ID org.gnome.Evolution thus for example to revert to the 3.44.3 release you run: $ flatpak update --commit c7a8d2741616cefb7faa53bbd8ec2ae27a20244e5cadbecff2dc82416b36f8d2 org.gnome.Evolution Hope it helps.

You set the default applications like any other Gnome system, i.e. Settings -> Default Applications. Primarily for these purposes you just need to set the Mail application to Evolution. Mailto: links from web pages should now work. Do they?

It does not work on Evolution Flatpak 3.44.4 on Chrome on any of my systems. I am going to try a brand new install of a non Ubuntu based distro like Fedora on my test device. -Original Message- From: Michael via evolution-list Reply-To: michaeljke...@outlook.com To: evolution-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [Evolution] Potential Issue casued by Update Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 11:53:48 -0500 Interestingly I found I was having the same exact issue with my Ubuntu 22.01.1 on the generic 5.15 on my daily driver (my Home laptop is running Pop OS 22.04.1 with the latest 5.19 kernel). On my Ubuntu machine Evolution not longer showed up as an option in Default Applications. I completely removed the Evolution flatpak then tried to install it from Apt (sudo apt install evolution-ews) and still no dice on mailto or even showing up in the Default Application setting. I removed the apt and then installed again with $ sudo apt install evolution but again no dice. I then decided to bite the bullet and install Evolution from Ubuntu Software (version 3.44.1-0ubuntu1 ), which I try to avoid, and boom! It shows up in my Default Applications and now Mailto links work perfectly. I am not as crazy about the look of the Snap version but I am functional now so I will mess with my Pop OS laptop to troubleshoot but I am thinking whatever recent update both my devices have in common borked something. -Original Message- From: Pete Biggs To: evolution-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [Evolution] Potential Issue casued by Update Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 16:10:50 +0100 > > And when clicking a MailTo link I get this Chrome output when > Evolution is the default: > > gpg-agent[6]: directory '/home/michael/.gnupg' created > gpg-agent[6]: directory '/home/michael/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d' > created > gpg-agent: a gpg-agent is already running - not starting a new one > Gtk-Message: 09:20:39.393: Failed to load module "appmenu-gtk-module" > Failed to initialize gtk+: Cannot open display: If it can't open the display, then that is a fairly serious things - there's no way that Evolution can start if it can't do that. Are you doing this directly on the console of the machine or is it a remote session? Are you running Xorg or Wayland? Is the chrome running on a different (virtual) machine?
