Hi,
System is f41, fully updated.
Desktop is GNOME
PC is Lenovo Thinkpad X280.
After an update a week or two ago clicking on a link in a thunderbird
email stopped working.
An update today installed a new thunderbird, 128.9.0esr (64-bit) and
this situation persists.
The browser is firefox but at one point in the past it was
firefox-wayland I think.
I can right click and copy the link and then paste it into firefox
already running (acceptable work around)
But I would like to get it working as expected, launch firefox or
open a window in one already running.
Any suggestions are welcome,
TIA,
Roger Wells
Hi Roger,
I'm running the Daily version of upstream Thunderbird and Nightly
version of upstream firefox both of which are updated daily. When I
click on a url link in a mail the link launches in firefox which is
the default browser, although I'm running KDE in F41.
When right-clicking on the link in the mail does the popup include
the option "Open in Browser"? I'm not sure where to find this in
Gnome, but you may want to check what the default settings for
mimetypes to see what is set for the mimetype associated with the link
you are clicking on, an update may have changed that.
regards,
Steve
thanks, I'll report back what I learn
