Bug Description
Impact
------
Because ubuntu-
Test Case
---------
1. ubuntu-session and gnome-session should depend on xdg-desktop-
2. It should be possible to uninstall xdg-desktop-
After installing or uninstall portal packages, you should log out and log back in to make sure the user services get stopped and started correctly.
What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
This just adds an additional dependency.
I believe the portal backends currently open by default in the locale sort order, so xdg-desktop-
How This Was Fixed
------------------
ubuntu-
Therefore, we are handling this with a dependency in ubuntu-session. We are also doing this with gnome-session since that's a popular alternative for people who want a vanilla GNOME experience.
Original Bug Report
-------------------
With ubuntu 22.04 firefox comes as snap package by default.
it is not possible to open any file dialog. save graphics as, save html page, import certificate never opens a file dialog.
firefox is completly useless without that file dialog.
(the root case is ubuntu uses snap)
further: in snap store firefox has no icon and it's called firefox not "Firefox".
