[Bug 1253703] [NEW] Webbrowser tries to open file:///usr/share/webbrowser-app/'URL' instead of the URL directly

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I notice this one while using Facebook webapp. It starts working fine,
when I click on a link it opens the webbrowser as it should, but after a
while when I click the link it goes to the webbbrowser window and fails
trying to open "file:///usr/share/webbrowser-app/'URL'" instead.

Steps to reproduce:
1) adb shell; su - phablet;
2) upstart-app-launch webbrowser-app http://www.ubuntu.com
Browser should open trying to load www.ubuntu.com.
3) Run the same command again.
Browser will open displaying error message:
"Network Error
It appears you are having trouble viewing: file:///usr/share/webbrowser-app/'http://www.ubuntu.com'.
Ubuntu suggests you check your network settings and try refreshing the page."

Currently using r27 with channel devel-proposed, read-only, in a Nexus
4. This problem wasn't happening with only devel (r10).

** Affects: upstart-app-launch
