1792160 - Firefox (Mac) shift+command+delete issue

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1784692

(Core :: Widget: Cocoa, defect, P5)

Description

[Michael Roney]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:105.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/105.0

Steps to reproduce:

Issue: Launch the Firefox browser (Mac desktop). shift+command+delete [then enter key]

Actual results:

Issue: Since your last Firefox update (Mac desktop): When launching the Firefox browser (Mac), shift+command+delete [then enter key] is focused on the URL field area.

Expected results:

Solution: Since your last Firefox update (Mac desktop): Now, I must (first) click on (for example) the Firefox background (to exit the URL field area), then I press shift+command+delete [then enter key] (Mac) to clear my history.
Please set (restore) Firefox browser's shortcut (shift+command+delete [then enter key]) so it clears the history when Firefox (Mac) is (freshly) launched. Thnx

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

I am not a programmer. I will wait & watch to see what happens.
Thank-you Bugbug bot. I would like to recompense (to you) a box of Bits & Bites (a Canadian snack).

I'm unable to reproduce this. Could you run mozregression to see when this started happening? If you have never run mozregression before, simply run these three commands in a Terminal window:

sudo easy_install pip
sudo python3 -m pip install -U mozregression --ignore-installed
mozregression --good 2017-01-01

A number of Firefox versions will open in succession to narrow down when this started occurring. Simply type "good" or "bad" in Terminal based on whether or not a build reproduces the bug. Once finished, please post the output from the last run. It should give a last good and first bad revision as well as a link to look at the changesets in that range. Thank you!

Hi Stephen (A Pohl [:spohl]), AWESOME!!! :)
I (just now) updated from Firefox 105.0.0 to 105.0.1.
The bug is fixed.

A separate note. I'm not requesting anything ...
For me, your Terminal command threw an error (partially seen below):

bla, bla, bla
File "/tmp/easy_install-_mdmKc/pip-22.2.2/setup.py", line 7
def read(rel_path: str) -> str:
                     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun

This is my first Bugzilla reply. Sorry for any mistakes.
Thank-you for your quick response & help :)

I'm happy to hear that this was a quick fix! And thank you for the Terminal output. I will keep this in mind if anyone else is running into a similar issue.

In addition to my previous reply (now resolved), I found this link (issue) which I believe is related.
This (potentially related) bug was resolved a few hours ago.
Like my issue, the bug relates to "focus on the browser's address (URL) field".

Thank-you Stephen (A Pohl [:spohl]) & Bugzilla.
