Bug ID: 505770
Summary: Plasma 6.4 Welcome screen tries to open Firefox
instead of using system default browser
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: KDE Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: talhaysfq at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
After updating to Plasma 6.4, a welcome screen appears with a link to the new
features. When I click the link, it tries to open Firefox specifically. If
Firefox is not installed, it shows an error like "Firefox not found" instead of
using my system default browser (LibreWolf in my case). OTHER APPLICATIONS
CORRECTLY USE THE SYSTEM DEFAULT BROWSER.
Expected behavior:
The link should open in the system's default browser, not hardcoded to Firefox.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Update to Plasma 6.4
2. Launch the Plasma 6.4 new features thing(i dont know this app name)
3. Click on the "Read about the new features" link
4. Observe the error if Firefox is not installed
System:
- KDE Neon (specify version)
- Plasma 6.4
- Default browser: LibreWolf
