What Happened?
Hello! Hope everyone is having a great day!
Today I just installed elementaryOS 6 Odin, updated everything through the AppCenter and went into Epiphany (aka GNOME Web) in order to have internet access. I tested it on a very simple website I created myself (https://www.eppencoders.com.br) and everything just works. Great! The same can be said about a pretty small web-based snake game I created a while ago, at (https://pedropaulosuzuki.github.io/snake_game_JS). Google (https://www.google.com) also works fine! So what's the issue?
Well, any other website I tried just did not work. Flathub (https://flathub.org), YouTube (https://www.youtube.com) and even Github (https://github.com/elementary) failed. (Actually Github worked for about 5 seconds and then, all of a sudden, it didn't). I had to install the Flatpak version of Firefox from the terminal in order to even open this issue. And as the installation ended, Epiphany just came back to life!
Thus, I suspect that some dependency was missing and then, when Firefox got installed as a flatpak, everything came back to life. I did not experience that when I installed elementaryOS 6 earlier on a GNOME Boxes instance, so I'm not 100% sure what happened and now I don't think I can reproduce the issue again, unless I reinstall eOS 6, which I don't think is the best idea. Does anyone know how can we check that? Thanks for your time!!
Steps to Reproduce
- Installed elementaryOS 6 Odin;
- Run all current updates from the AppCenter (didn't test on 100% fresh install);
- Open GNOME Web (Epiphany);
- Try any of the following websites: Github, Youtube or Flathub.
Expected Behavior
Expected websites to work. They did not work until I installed Firefox from flathub using terminal commands, which made Epiphany work too, probably due to the installation of some kind of dependency.
Note: I did run 'sudo apt autoremove' earlier and one package got removed, but I don't remember what it was, but I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do with this issue, but it might be a thing, idk.
