Firefox window does not have an icon since firefox 98

[paper42]

System

• xuname:
  Void 5.16.11_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
• package:
  firefox-98.0_1

Expected behavior

When I click on the firefox icon on the dock, a firefox window opens, has the correct icon and I get a dot under the firefox icon on the dock which indicates that firefox is open.

Actual behavior

When I click on the firefox icon on the dock, a firefox window opens, has the default icon and I don't get a dot under the firefox icon on the dock.

This worked before b1265c8 - firefox 98.0.
I tried using a .desktop file from arch, but it didn't help.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

• install GNOME or probably any other (wayland?) DE
• install firefox
• start firefox

I was able to workaround this issue by adding StartupWMClass=firefox-default to firefox.desktop and that works for me. But I'm not sure what the correct fix is.

Hmm, while it is better, it's not completely solved. The old icon has a name Firefox Web Browser, the new one is Firefox, so I had to re-add the shortcut. That said, I think it would be more confusing to change wm_name again, so I am closing this.
