LibreWolf intermittently detected

jamese

Hello,

Sometimes Cookie can see LibreWolf, and sometimes it can't. There is no disabled section in the latter case. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling LibreWolf, revoking all sandbox permissions, granting full disk access, clearing iCloud data, rebooting, etc. Whether or not it appears seems to be arbitrary.

I'm using the signed build of LibreWolf from instantcocoa, so it is not quarantined when updated.

The profile location is ~/Library/Application Support/librewolf/Profiles

Safari and Un-Googled Chromium are always detected.

It would be nice to be able to bypass the auto-detection and specify the browser location manually.

Thanks,

James

could you try the latest beta version:

I installed the latest beta v8.5.0.1, but it did not make any difference.

SweetP

Unfortunately, I can't recreate the issue you are describing, I added the bundleID for the signed version to Cookie. So it should be correctly identified now

jamese

Thanks for looking into it. I'll let you know if I discover anything else.

BTW, I was having the same issue with the unsigned version, which prompted me to find the signed one.

I just uploaded a new beta with some more LibreWolf related fixes, but it likely won't help with your issue.... if you see some kind of pattern, can you let me know

jamese

After installing v8.5.0.2, LibreWolf is now detected. However, it just has a 📄 icon, and it shows Business and Personal profiles, even though there is only one profile folder.

SweetP

Perhaps it’s a ghost profile from an old install?

jamese

Perhaps, but the librewolf/Profiles folder only contains one profile ending in .default-default, and profiles.ini only contains that one profile. I could try completely deleting all data for librewolf and Cookie, but I won't worry about it for now since it's working.

Can you try 8.5.0.3 when you get a moment and see if it helps

jamese

No change with 8.5.0.3
