Package: gaim
Version: 1:1.2.0-2
Followup-For: Bug #281381

I have this same problem (launching epiphany tho), so I ran gaim under
an strace when I had a new hotmail message. Between the open and the
unlink of the tmp file, the only thing under /usr/bin/ that I could find
was /usr/bin/gnome-open being accessed near a fork(). So I found out
that gnome-open is a gnome 2.6 thing that looks in gconf for what to
use. Then I opened my gconf editor and went looking for something
referring to epiphany. I found the following gconf key and changed it to
read "galeon" - /desktop/gnome/applications/browser/exec. Unfortunately
this had no effect :(
