I installed gnome-shell 3.28.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.4 from bionic-proposed in a fully up-to-date bionic VM (amd64) and verified that after restarting the shell (Alt+F2, r), the problem with password fields in firefox is gone.
I used the instructions in duplicate bug #1795169 for testing, as they don't involve installing an extension, and test case #2 in this bug report (which involves reddit login page) doesn't exhibit the problem any longer. ** Tags removed: verification-needed-bionic ** Tags added: verification-done-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765304 Title: Ubuntu 18.04's ibus package breaks password fields in Firefox (by lowering & raising window whenever they're focused) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1765304/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
