[Bug 1660450] Re: Firefox crashes unity8 zesty
There's some platform-specific code in firefox itself that's trying to
detect the display name using the environment, but it's only been done
for x11, wayland, and broadway. It needs to be fixed in upstream
firefox:

Title:
Firefox crashes unity8 zesty
Status in Canonical System Image:
New
Status in upstart-app-launch package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I believe this is a different bug than bug 1627311
using a fresh zesty install, logging into unity8 deb session
I installed libertine manager
Since FF is installed as part of the original image - it shows up automagically in the app drawer.
Clicking on the icon, a unity8 app window with a splash appears, but eventually fails.
The only real error i see is in ~/.cache/upstart/application-legacy-firefox-blah.log
Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays
