Package: liferea
Version: 1.8.3-0.1
Severity: normal

I noticed that after the recent NMU of liferea opening URLs in an
external browser stopped working the way I liked it.

The browser value is set to x-www-browser which points to iceweasel:

$ gconftool -g /apps/liferea/browser_id
x-www-browser
$ readlink readlink -f `which x-www-browser`
/usr/lib/iceweasel/iceweasel
$

When I open a URL in an external browser (by clicking on it), liferea
launches chromium instead.

Changing /apps/liferea/brower_id to firefox changes this behaviour to
indeed selecting iceweasel. This seems like a bug in the way the new
liferea invokes x-www-browser. stracing liferea (with the old setting)
shows that it indeed exec()s /usr/bin/chromium instead of
/usr/bin/x-www-browser. Could you have a look into this?
