[Test Case] 1. Install two webapps on desktop that use the webapp-container as a launcher, e.g. https://code.launchpad.net/~abreu-alexandre/+junk/webapp-test and https://code.launchpad.net/~ogra/+junk/slack-webapp 2. Make sure that when you launch the slack-webapp nothing happens (no app id is provided the app is not launched), 3. Modify the slack app so that the Exec= line contains the following argument: --app-id=slackclient re-install the app, 4. Make sure that the 2 apps can be launched simultaneously, [Regression Potential] All webapps that dont provide an app-id wont start anymore. All current webapps though do provide an app-id. Original report description: --------------------------- I have on xenial the webbrowser-app as my main browser; if I use the webapp-container for anything else it opens as a tab in the main browser window. If I open a container instance first, opening the webbrowser app opens a new tab in the container instance. One webcontainer example to use is http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ogra/+junk/slack-webapp/files ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: webbrowser-app 0.23+16.04.20160413-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-21-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue May 3 11:47:05 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-08-17 (259 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release amd64 (20150422) SourcePackage: webbrowser-app UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2015-11-06 (179 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1577806/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
