Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0 Build ID: 20180912143528 Steps to reproduce: Opened the debug tab of the developer tools. Clicked on the line number of a line of code to set a breakpoint. I've also tried right clicking and selecting "Add breakpoint", and pressing Ctrl+B with a line selected. I even tried setting a conditional breakpoint with a condition of `true`. Actual results: It briefly highlighted the line number in blue (or yellow if a conditional breakpoint), then went back to what it was before, unhighlighting. Running through the code did not stop on the breakpoint. Expected results: It should have created a breakpoint.

Hi :Thayne, can you give us some more context?
So this happened for every website for me on ubuntu 16.04. I have since upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 and debugging works. It also worked on my desktop running archlinux.
okay, lets see if others can repro on 16.04. I think it might have been something we fixed in the past couple of months as well.
