Package: firejail-profiles
Version: 0.9.62-4~bpo10+1
Severity: normal

When using Thunderbird under firejail, the ability to open links
(e.g. clicking them) is largely broken.  If Firefox is the default
browser, then it opens a new Firefox profile as it was opening for the
first time.  It ignores the existing Firefox setup.  If xdg-open is
the default browser, then it does nothing.  I added "ignore nodbus" to
thunderbird.local, that does not seem to change the link clicking.

To test this, I ran:

    firejail --profile=thunderbird firefox https://f-droid.org
    firejail --profile=thunderbird xdg-open https://f-droid.org

I also tried lots of other profiles to see with which xdg-open worked.
If found xdg-open worked with awesome, blackbox, and caja then I
stopped trying other profiles.  So this works:

    firejail --profile=caja xdg-open https://f-droid.org

But then this does not:

    firejail --profile=caja --apparmor xdg-open https://f-droid.org

Adding "ignore apparmor" to thunderbird.local did not seem to fix the
link clicking though.  Maybe the thunderbird.profile has multiple
issues preventing link clicking.  Since it includes the firefox common
profile, link clickability was not a factor in the Firefox setup,
since clicking links in Firefox always opens them in Firefox.
