User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0
Steps to reproduce:
I'm on F36 with some GNOME 42.beta packages running Wayland. I'm running Firefox 98.0b8 from Flathub with socket=wayland and MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
.
- Run Firefox.
- Click on a link in any other app, or even just try to
flatpak run org.mozilla.firefox
.
Actual results:
Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile.
Expected results:
Link opens in new tab.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Gtk' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Found a fix: enabling --socket=session-bus
(e.g. through Flatseal).

Jan, do we need --socket=session-bus
on the flatpak build or so?

Well, preferably not, the firefox beta creates the org.mozilla.firefox_beta.<profile_name>
dbus service to receive remote requests. So we should rather adding additional --own-name=org.mozilla.firefox_beta.*
to the https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/taskcluster/docker/firefox-flatpak/runme.sh#163 if we want to cover also the beta channel.
