SUMMARY

Each time I start Firefox I get the window asking to make Firefox my default browser.
I did not change the default browser, nor I have installed other browsers.

I found out I have a /usr/sbin/firefox that sets the GTK_USE_PORTAL variable. If I start firefox by using /usr/bin/firefox instead, I have no dialog and Firefox is happy.

Probably related to bug 402206.

I have the lastest Neon stable with all updates installed as of today.
