Bug Description
Description of the problem:
Since moving to edgy's deskbar there no longer seems to be a way of searching the web using google with deskbar.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start firefox and ensure the google suggest search box is selected in firefox.
2. Select deskbar
3. Press the right mouse button.
4. Ensure Web searches is the only one ticked and is at the top of the list. Highlight "Web Searches" and click on More... and check that "Show only the primary search engine" is selected. Click Close, Close.
5. In the deskbar text area type google.
Expected results:
Dropdown to only say
Search Google for google
.
Actual results:
Dropdown says
Search Ubuntu Package Search for google
Search Wikipedia topic for google
.
Version information:
(Edgy)
firefox 1.99+2.
firefox-
deskbar-applet 2.16.0-0ubuntu4
I can confirm this, and I think this is due to the new format of firefox's search plugins that switched from a .src to a .xml file
