[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1694992] [NEW] Menus unavailable after invoking 'firefox ' when Firefox is already running

ruben vestergaard Thu, 01 Jun 2017 06:56:09 -0700

Public bug reported:

When invoking e.g. "firefox http://i.imgur.com/xBFkdkX.jpg"; from a
terminal (or urlview(1)), while a Firefox instance is already running,
the following happens:


* The URL is correctly opened in a new tab
* All menu functionality disappears - that is, right clicking does not work 
anywhere, neither does the top-right Downloads, Bookmarks or Open menu buttons.

Sometimes the buttons *do* seem to respond, very briefly flashing the
menu before disappearing again.

The problem is present even in a brand new profile running in safe mode.

The problem seems to be intermittent and not always manifesting, however
the above URL seems to trigger it consistently.

First time I report a bug this way - all the relevant debug info is
attached somewhere, right?

Cheers!
