dnf firefox missing
Sorry for a 2nd post (different bugs, thanks for help getting the other one fixed). I recently rebased from ublue/nvidia to bazzite/gnome/nvidia, and it seems to have lost the rpm-ostree firefox package. It's marked as requested, and attempting to install again does nothing (because it thinks it's already requested).. but the
firefox command and the .desktop entries seem to be missing. As that's my only way of managing gnome extensions, I can't really resort to the flatpak firefox, otherwise I would.13 Replies
It's removed and you won't be able to install it
we ship the flatpak, should have been automatically installed
if you want the RPM the only option is to fork our repo and build your own
which should have been installed automatically as well
I am able to install extensions from flatpak firefox
I'm getting that now, also
Flatpak brave also get's an error
not able to reproduce this
Yea.. reproducing would be a bit fun.. as I originally started on vanilla silverblue -> ublue -> here
keeping the flatpak the entire time.. and it has never worked for me on flatpak
(regardless of image)
From my research, I attributed the bug to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621763

And the comments on the bottom confirm it is indeed related
That said, the exntension manager does work as a workaround, the only other downside is that 1pass can't talk between its dnf app and an extension within flatpak apps.. but that's manageable, just a pain.
Thanks again for helping
you can also install firefox in distrobox as well
