Hello,

Could some more detailed STR be provided so I can try to reproduce the issue? As it stands, I do not know where to begin with this. Thank you !

Hey!

1. Remove both occurrences of the following code from toolkit/components/extensions/test/mochitest/test_ext_browserAction_openPopup_windowId.html:

if (AppConstants.platform == "linux") {
  // TODO bug 1798334: Currently unreliable on linux
  todo(false, "Unreliable on linux");
  return;
}

2. Run ./mach test toolkit/components/extensions/test/mochitest/test_ext_browserAction_openPopup_windowId.html

Note that this is only reproducible on Linux.

Marking this as a blocker of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1799344 until I've verified that this is only a test failure. At the moment I can't rule out the fact that this is also causing unreliable behaviour when using the API in practice.
