To @kfunk @axet @troyready: That worked perfectly for me. Thank you so much!!!
For those like me for whom these are all magical incantations, here's my sequence aggregated from advice above: Press the Ubuntu/Super key and type "Software" and pick the one that is called "Software & Updates". On the first tab, make sure "source code" is checked. Then, open a terminal and paste the following (line by line up to the apt line, then the rest can go together): ``` apt-get build-dep snapd TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d) cd $TMPDIR apt-get -y source snapd sed -i 's/"http", "https", "mailto", "snap", "help"/"http", "https", "mailto", "snap", "help", "apt", "zoommtg", "slack"/' snapd-*/usersession/userd/launcher.go sed -i 's/!osutil.GetenvBool(reExecKey, true)/true/' snapd-*/cmd/cmd_linux.go cd snapd-* && dch -l$(hostname) fix_missing_app_types cd .. cd snapd-* && DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck debuild -b -uc -us cd .. sudo dpkg -i snapd_*.deb sudo service snapd restart killall snap ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776873 Title: Whitelisted allowedURLschemes breaks some desktop apps Status in snapd: Triaged Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/blob/7952972d4897e085030b288e44dc98b824f6723a/userd/launcher.go#L55 snapd has a hard-coded list of allowed URL schemes. Currently that is limited to "http", "https", "mailto", "snap". We have a number of applications in the store which are trying to use protocol handlers outside this scope and break when that's not possible. e.g. Telegram Desktop: tg:/ Github Desktop: git:/ IRCCloud Desktop: irc:/ These are the ones I know of, others may also be affected. Can we please at least expand the list to those that we know of, and perhaps research other popular protocol handlers? Ideally we wouldn't have a whitelist, because this delays our ability to land new applications with as-yet unknown url schemes.
