      I remember it works with flatpak. Fedora distribute their firefox as flatpak, and search provider works out of the box.

      I also made it work before with the flathub version. You just need to add the boolean variable and set it to true. And enable the bus org.mozilla.Firefox.SearchProvider for firefox in flatseal.

      But remember this provider only work when firefox is open.
