Hi Israel,

I think once you started that Browser list it has opened up too many
glitches.  My initial thought would be just leave Firefox and Chromium
in the list and drop the rest.

Regards,
JackT.

Hi Jack,
I am thinking of just redirecting users to the websites of the other
browsers, since they can be problematic.
For instance, with Opera, and palemoon, and seamonkey.

Chromium is the only one that 'just works', qupzilla works on jessie,
but not on precise (which we no longer support officially, of course),
chrome is not complicated to do so i can also automate it.  Midori (i
think)  works but is not as nice in Debian as it is on Ubuntu.

Anyhow... I think this is the best solution.  I do a check for xdg-open
and I also search for other common browsers just to see if there is an
easy way to make it work to open the website.

What do you think?
I am open to simply downloading the deb files from Opera and installing
them, but I do not entirely know what links to use.
