Firefox distrobox ubuntu22.04
Last modified: 2024-03-23 15:17:03 UTC
Created attachment 873720 [details] Info on icon. I made a lot of tries to install a suit of apps (firefox, tokenadmin, safesignidentityclient) to work with digital signatures of Giesecke/Dreviant, and after a several times going wrong (proprietary software that is imposed to me by law on Brazil [for lawyers]), this software finally works and find Firefox. However, after run distrobox-export for firefox, this app doesn't start, and there are some conflicting info on icons (screenshots). Finaly, the app is working on backgroud, as the system monitor shows. How to solve that?
What happens when you manually enter the distrobox, and launch firefox from the terminal?
(In reply to Shawn Dunn from comment #1) > What happens when you manually enter the distrobox, and launch firefox from > the terminal? The result is: [adenauer@Ubuntu-22-04 ~]$ firefox Command '/usr/bin/firefox' requires the firefox snap to be installed. Please install it with: snap install firefox However, Ubuntu 22.04 installing is snap by standart. 📦[adenauer@Ubuntu-22-04 ~]$ sudo apt info firefox Package: firefox Version: 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2 Priority: optional Section: web Origin: Ubuntu Maintainer: Ubuntu Mozilla Team <ubuntu-mozillateam@lists.ubuntu.com> Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug Installed-Size: 261 kB Provides: gnome-www-browser, iceweasel, www-browser, x-www-browser Pre-Depends: debconf, snapd Depends: debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0 Breaks: firefox-dbg (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-dev (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-geckodriver (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-mozsymbols (<< 1:1snap1) Replaces: firefox-dbg (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-dev (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-geckodriver (<< 1:1snap1), firefox-mozsymbols (<< 1:1snap1) Task: xubuntu-live, ubuntukylin-desktop Download-Size: 72.3 kB APT-Manual-Installed: yes APT-Sources: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages Description: Transitional package - firefox -> firefox snap This is a transitional dummy package.

This isn't a Kalpa bug, Snaps are not supported inside of distrobox, Please see: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/issues/324#issuecomment-1179794085
