Bug#864221: firefox: Cannot open link from gnome-terminal anymore

[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: firefox
Version: 53.0.is.52.0.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

When clicking on a link in gnome-terminal, the page is not being opened.

In the journal I can see the following message:

gnome-terminal-server[3319]: Error: GDK_BACKEND does not match available displays

If I'm setting an other default browser (ie epiphany) it's working as
expected.

Not too sure what's happening here.

Regards,

Laurent Bigonville
