[Bug 781389] [NEW] unable to set default browser

 

Public bug reported:

I installed Chromium browser, because I like it much better than Firefox. The only problem is that each time I start Chromium, it wants to set itself as default browser. If I click to set, the bar disappears, but at the next start it comes up again.
In Preferences, there is a button saying "Make Chromium My Default Browser". If I click on it, it just stays active and Firefox stays as the default.
What to do now?
