1786004 - When a text begin with "someword: rest of the text" the search is not triggered

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1786132

(Firefox Build System :: Third Party Packaging, defect)

Description

[fcodvpt]

Attachment: firefox_search_bug.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:103.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/103.0

Steps to reproduce:

I type the text to search in the search field or in the address bar. This is a text that begin with a word followed by a colon ":".

Example : "someword: rest of the text"

This happen typically when I search some error messages : "Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway."

I am using Firefox 103.0.2 64 bits installed with snap by default on Ubuntu 22.04.

Actual results:

Nothing happen or I get a "no available application" box (see the screenshot).
It seems as if the text was interpreted as an URI.

Expected results:

A search should be triggered.

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

I can reprouce the bug with a snap build but not with a regular build.
