patch

GNOME switched to using the x-scheme-handler/http(s) for the default
browser, instead of a custom GConf setting.

Note that this is needed for Chromium to detect whether it's the default
browser or not.

In order to upstream this patch, wouldn't we need to make it able to
detect GNOME 2.32 vs 3 and choose the right one?

It's GNOME3 specific, so this is what we'll need in Fedora going forward
(from F15 onwards).

updated patch

Fixes xdg-settings check not working as expected (we were comparing a
desktop name to a binary one).

Right, it seems that the upstream isn't as dead as I thought and Rex is
a committer, so I should fix it up.

new patch

Adds the ability to detect GNOME 3.x, on its own, and also ports the
mailto functionality to x-scheme-handler.

I also tested the GNOME3 code path more thoroughly for the browser
settings, and it works as expected on the command-line, and when used in
chromium ("check" to detect the current browser, and "set" to set
chromium as the default browser).

Chrome will use the system supplied one if available, and it keeps
asking me if it can be the default. I've tried both stable (Chrome 12)
and unstable (Chrome 14) and both fail.

As an aside, why is which(1) stderr output redirected to stdout?
