drag-and-dropping URL from firefox Navigation toolbar fails to append space after URL in terminal

[B Bobo]

Drag-and-dropping an object from a displayed page in firefox to a terminal causes the URL of the object to be inserted into the terminal. Normally a space is also automatically appended to the URL, which is convenient for making a valid list of URLs by drag-and-dropping several objects.

However, drag-and-dropping the URL from the Navigation toolbar inserts only the URL into the terminal. The space character that should be appended after the URL is omitted.

To reproduce this bug, it is necessary to double-click on the URL in the Navigation toolbar and then click-drag the URL to a terminal.

B Bobo,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Firefox since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 1170865

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you this bug report will close in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
