975551 - Long-tap on links failing in various circumstances ... error in LOGCAT ...

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 911904

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Mark Capella [:capella]]

I've noticed in nightly that long tapping various links (expecting context menu) is failing recently ... Aurora is ok ...

Error in LOGCAT shows:
   Error: "TypeError: this.defaultHtmlHandlers is undefined" {file: "resource://gre/modules/HelperApps.jsm" line: 111}]

Seems related to recent:

I can repro a subset of links on hackernews ...

As an example, specifically: "Important Bufferbox Update"
