[Bug 1207726] New: Micro OS First Boot Fails to install Firefox on AARCH64
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1207726 Bug ID: 1207726 Summary: Micro OS First Boot Fails to install Firefox on AARCH64 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: aarch64 OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: MicroOS Assignee: kubic-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: eric@tuxbot.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- When logging into Micro OS Gnome RC after creating a user the 'First Boot' script runs [/usr/bin/mod-firstboot] and attempts to install org.mozilla.firefox. However this always fails on aarch64 as Mozilla only provides an x86_64 package of the Firefox flatpak. This results in the mod-firstboot script failing with an error on every login. This also results in a broken environment as the rest of mod-firstboot fails to run. I don't know a lot about Micro OS but would suggest improving mod-firstboot in the following ways. 1) Install Firefox last and not first. This will allow the other components to successfully install even if the Firefox flatpack fails. 2) For AARCH64 default to installing a different brower, the org.chromium.Chromium flatpak is working well for me on AARCH64.

I agree, the number of Arm laptops is still low, but it is growing. When you check openSUSE:Factory:ARM project in OBS and openQA, you can see that software is ready. Mozilla not providing Firefox flatpack on aarch64 is known, but not sure who could help on this upstream issue. @Richard, are you ok to take this patch? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

@Richard, are you ok to take this patch?
Not really, no. I don't want to have to maintain two seperate test cases, needles, etc for aarch64 and x86_64 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Even if you choose to not officially support it I'd be dissapointed if Desktop Micro OS went away on AARCH64 as an (unsupported) option. Would you consider a revised version of the patch that just skipped Firefox on AARCH64? FWICT Mozilla has been working to add CI support for AARCH64 Firefox builds which will hopefully, someday, resolve this gap. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
