Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
I usually use keyboard shortcuts when using Firefox. F6 is one of them
and it focuses (and defocuses) the address bar. When the address bar is
in focus using this method, I expect that I can being to type in my URL.
I can't. Whatever I type in the address bar, the next character does not
print after the first but inserts itself over the first. The effect
being you can only type in one character into the address bar despite
having typed a full URL.
I can work around this problem by focusing the address bar with the
mouse.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Start Firefox
2) Press F6 to focus on the address bar
3) Begin typing a URL
Expected result:
You can type the URL as normal
Actual result:
You can only type one character before the second character over rides the
first and so on, with the effect that you can't type in a URL at all.
