Firefox Wayland, KDE Filechooser portal not launching

Your distro name and version

Fedora Kinoite 40

Description

in about:config I enabled

widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker 1

when disabling it, the nonfunctional integrated GTK portal launches.

When enabling it, it gives this error

(org.mozilla.firefox:2): Gdk-WARNING **: 09:12:03.022: Server is missing xdg_foreign support
[Parent 2, Main Thread] WARNING: Failed to export handle, could not set transient for: 'glib warning', file /builddir/build/BUILD/firefox-131.0.2/toolkit/xre/nsSigHandlers.cpp:187

(org.mozilla.firefox:2): Gtk-WARNING **: 09:12:03.022: Failed to export handle, could not set transient for

As this is not happening outside of bubblejail or with the Flatpak, I assume this is a bubblejail issue.

Hello @boredsquirrel

To be able to use portal you need to activate the gnome_toolkit service and the gnome_portal setting.

bubblejail/src/bubblejail/services.py

Line 754 in 97f1fb1

yield DbusSessionTalkTo("org.freedesktop.portal.*")

I plan on revisiting the portal integration but this is currently the only way to activate portals.

hi there, how would I do that?

Add this to config:

[gnome_toolkit]
gnome_portal = true

Thanks! Interesting, this makes FF use the KDE Portal even without setting the about:config variable.
