We also need to fix the icecat and iceweasel helpers. I'm build those now to see how they behave and if any options are needed.

'exo-open --launch WebBrowser' opens a new browser window and 'exo-open url' opens the url in a new tab (for all three changed helpers). Tested browsers: - Firefox 36.0 - Iceweasel 36.0 - IceCat 31.4.0 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1425972/comments/5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2015-02-26T21:30:01+00:00 Hjudt-l wrote: Pushed to master: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/exo/commit/?id=8022a52d10e834ef4481a317b11d6fe02a6c1bf3 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1425972/comments/8 ** Changed in: exo Status: Unknown => Fix Released ** Changed in: exo Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1425972 Title: Firefox no longer supports -remote parameter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/exo/+bug/1425972/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
