Describe the bug

As mention in title if I install AppImageLauncher 3.0.0-beta-1 then the KeePassXC browser extension doesn't work on my LibreWolf browser. When I try to Connect it keeps giving me "Key exchange was not successful." error.
But as soon as I uninstall AppImageLauncher 3.0.0-beta-1, both LibreWolf and KeePassXC works fine.

Note: Only AppImageLauncher is installed as debian package, KeePassXC and LibreWolf both are AppImages.

Expected behavior

Pair with KeePassXC database without any errors.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Download latest version of LibreWolf AppImage (in my case v142.0.1-1 x86_64), KeePassXC AppImage (in my case v2.7.10 x86_64) and AppImageLauncher v3.0.0-beta-1 amd64.deb.
  2. Install the AppImageLauncher deb package (restart device if you want but it doesn't affect the result)
  3. Run and integrate KeePassXC AppImage via AppImageLauncher, unlock your database, enable browser integration option as mentioned here, for LibreWolf add this as custom browser configuration location.
  4. Run and integrate LibreWolf via AppImageLauncher, install their browser extension (in my case v1.9.9.6) now try to connect to KeePassXC database.
  5. It fails. ❌
  6. Uninstall AppImageLauncher completely
  7. Try again from LibreWolf
  8. It works ✅
