[Note]: - Must have Foxit installed on the system. - The snap build was installed using 'sudo snap install firefox --beta' command. [Affected versions]: - Fx 64.0b7 - SNAP build - Fx 63.0.1 - SNAP build [Affected platforms]: - Ubuntu 16.04 x64 LTS [Steps to reproduce]: 1. Launch Firefox snap build. 2. Go to about:preferences and scroll down to the Applications section. 3. Open the 'action' drop-down menu for PDF. [Expected result]: - Foxit should be displayed in the drop-down list. [Actual result]: - Foxit is not displayed in the drop-down. [Regression range]: - Same issue occurs on Fx63.0.1 snap build, so I don't think this is a regression. [Additional notes]: - If you mention the path to the Foxit launcher and in a new tab visit http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb-bmdi/pub/instrument/3901_Q2_V3-eng.pdf , it can be noticed that the PDF is downloaded, but nothing else happens. Clicking on the downloaded file or on the 'open folder' button inside the downloads panel does not work. - This issue does not occur on the latest beta or nightly normal builds. There Foxit is recognized as a default program to open PDF files, and after the download is complete, Foxit launches displaying the downloaded pdf.
