[Bug 1390529] [NEW] Browser remembers previous download and tries to visit on next start

 

Public bug reported:

I previously opened a pdf the last time I used the web browser, now some
days later, opening the browser for the first time today it spawned
content hub to read the pdf which I'd previously downloaded.

Steps to reproduce.

1) Install pdfjs from the store to enable you to open pdf files on
device

2) On the device visit this page in the browser http://www.powerpc-
notebook.org/2014/10/presentation-slides-used-at-linux-day-2014/ (short
url http://bit.ly/1u6DRQu )

3) Click the link "download LinuxDay 2014 Milan presentation slides"
which is http://www.powerpc-notebook.org/wp-
content/uploads/2014/10/LinuxDay2014_Mi_presentation_pub_en.pdf (short
url http://bit.ly/1GxC4ZX )

4) At this point you get a content hub popup, choose pdfjs and happily
view the pdf

5) Time passes, reboot phone

6) Open browser, look away for a few seconds, get a content hub dialog,
be surprised that you don't get the browser.
