Title:
Setting browser "Default application" ineffective (screenshot
attached). Gnome.
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
In Ubuntu 14.04LTS:
In "system settings" there's a control for "Default applications" for "Web".
This does not appear to change the gnome-conf settings.
See attached screenshot.
Note how Firefox is shown in one place, Chrome in the other.
This in turn leads to incorrect behavior when a program like an RSS reader, Skype or https://josm.openstreetmap.de/
wants to open a browser window to a particular URL. Usually I end up with a blank Chrome window, where I wanted
a filled in Firefox window.
