Unable to de-containerize tabs since 6.0.12

vaygr opened this issue · comments

What happened?

I think I noticed it after the last release.

Steps to repro:

  1. Open a tab in a private / personal container
  2. Right-click ⇒ Open in New Container Tab ⇒ No Container
  3. The tab next to it is opened in the same container

This is on latest stable Manjaro.

Reproducible?

  • I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.

Version

G6

What platform are you seeing the problem on?

Linux

@MrAlex94 Upgrading to 6.0.13 didn't fix the issue. In fact it's become more visible when the new tab is created - containerless, then gets put in the same container and the non-containerized tab disappears.

I also had to downgrade to 6.0.12, since 6.0.13 resulted in extremely high CPU usage (about 40% instead of usual 7-12) in idle.

I successfully reproduced this with these steps:

  1. Open a tab with URL, ex. https://example.com
  2. Close Waterfox Sidebar.
  3. Right-click on the tab prepared at the step 1 on the horizontal tab bar, and choose "Open in New Container Tab" => "Personal".
  4. A tab with "Personal" container is opened as expected.
  5. Right-click on the tab opened at the step 4 on the horizontal tab bar, and choose "Open in New Container Tab" => "No Container".
  6. A tab with "Personal" container is opened, it is not expected. It should be a no container tab.

This is unexpected side effect of Waterfox Sidebar, and needs to be fixed.
