<div>Hi Didier.<br>
<br>
</div>
My snap package (wallpaperdownloader) invokes xdg-open
internally but it isn't working yet. Should I use a
specific interface to accomplish that? This is the
snapcraft.yml<br>
<br>

Hey Eloy,<br>
<br>
You need to have snapd-xdg-open package installed on the desktop.
IIRC, the goal was to seed it by default or have snapd recommending
it. CCing mvo on that who also responsible for the package on ubuntu
if there is any reason this isn't the case yet.<br>
<br>
Ensure you are then using xdg-open from /usr/local/bin/.<br>
<br>
I konw this is working with the unity7 interface (I don't remember
if the x11 one is succifient, but it should, if not, it's a bug).<br>

> It's been a few weeks now, but last I heard, the
snapcraft team was or did a sprint to address current
limitations snaps have regarding the invocation of
external processes. Specifically, it would be nice to
launch the user's default browser with a URL, or let a
snap invoke another instance of itself. What's the status
on this?<br>
><br>
</span>Hey Spencer,<br>
<br>
Default browser should works for some months already if your
application<br>
(or toolkit, like Qt does) invoke the xdg-open to open the
url. This is<br>
then transmitted via dbus to an external process on your
classic system<br>
which then issues the real xdg-open command.<br>
For the others, there are been indeed multiple discussions
on this at<br>
multiple places (here, on the bug report…), but no action or
firm<br>
decision. I'm CCing Gustavo as he was the one against a more
generic<br>
intermediate solutions.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Didier<br>
