1932481 - [Waypipe] Unable to install addon when running over waypipe + weston

Status: NEW

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P3)

Description

[:gerard-majax]

I'm building on a desktop and working on a laptop, using waypipe. Sometimes I run waypipe from within a shell started from Weston.
Earlier I was trying to install the remote settings devtools addon https://github.com/mozilla-extensions/remote-settings-devtools/releases/tag/1.10.0-build2 and it could never install

STR:

• waypipe ssh ...
• WAYLAND_DISPLAY=xxx mach run
• click the link of XPI, wait for the popup asking to add the addon and click "Add"

Expected:

• addon is added

Actual:

• nothing

Debug build shows [Parent 519477, Main Thread] WARNING: '!promise', file /home/alexandre/Documents/codaz/Mozilla/MiscWork/mozilla-source/mozilla-unified/widget/gtk/nsWindow.cpp:3012 on each click of Add: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/2deb9bcf801f9de83d4f30c890d442072b9b6595/widget/gtk/nsWindow.cpp#3008-3011,3013-3026

Weston is messing up with the focus?

Running via waypipe without weston I dont reproduce.

Please run on terminal with MOZ_LOG="Widget:4" env variable to get correct error and attach the log here.
It fails here:

Looks like any interaction with the menu items are also broken (e.g. click the hamburger menu, "history" nothing happens)

missing xdg activation ? https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ef34dd879ef8d4a0f3d68d371d23caebcd8fef65/widget/gtk/WidgetUtilsGtk.cpp#327

Yes, xdg_activation protocol doesn't look supported/proxied by waypipe. Please file a bug there.

Well, except it works when running outside of weston

So check WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 output if xdg_activation is provided by weston.
