Hi,
Thanks for reporting, I can confirm that this happens here with both 146
and 147 (but didn't used to happen).
Daniel, I tried out your xtradeb packages, and the bug occurs in the
chromium packages but not in your ungoogled-chromium packages. Do you
know if this is new upstream behavior that the u-c folks are patching out?
It likely is, but I did not notice it until you pointed it out :]
The only u-c patch that appears relevant is
https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/blob/master/
patches/extra/inox-patchset/0008-restore-classic-ntp.patch
but it hasn't changed in a while.
I tried that patch last night. While it does change new_tab_url
behavior, it shows a weird new tab url which doesn't match the behavior
that I see with u-c 146; instead, it shows 8 frequently-loaded url icons
and lacks a search bar. So there's something else. u-c also includes a
patch that adds a flag for a custom new_tab_url (ntp), and I'm digging
further to see if anything else they're doing changes things (and trying
to figure out what upstream did).
I can try a couple old snapshots to try to find when the behavior changed.
I've verified that it changed between 145 and 146.
