2015-03-04 23:33:25 Sean Davis description When I click a link from an email it does not work any more. Instead of opening the link in a new tab, Firefox opens a new empty window and does not follow the link. If I change the default browser for my desktop from Firefox to Chrome, then Chrome can open the link fine. I have started seeing this today since firefox was upgraded from v35 to 36. My email client is Mozilla thunderbird at the latest stable version.

[Impact] As of Firefox version 36, the -remote commandline parameter was dropped. This parameter is used in versions of exo prior to 0.10.3. Because of this, opening any URLs via exo-open will cause a new firefox window to launch at the home screen. As reported, this affects the terminal, ubuntu-bug, xchat, and numerous other applications. [Test Case] 1. Set Firefox as the default web browser in "Preferred Applications". 2. From a terminal, type the following: exo-open "http://www.xfce.org" Expected: Firefox opens at http://www.xfce.org Actual: Firefox opens at the home page. [Regression Potential] No regressions by this change. This fixes the application call to correctly open URLs. --- [Original Report] When I click a link from an email it does not work any more. Instead of opening the link in a new tab, Firefox opens a new empty window and does not follow the link. If I change the default browser for my desktop from Firefox to Chrome, then Chrome can open the link fine. I have started seeing this today since firefox was upgraded from v35 to 36.
