Nevermind, I figured it out. Apparently /usr/bin/xdg-email on my system was some executable (not a link) that executed chromium-browser. Removing xdg-email and running update-alternatives got me a working default mailto handler. It took me a while to find the information - there didn't seem to be a lot on setting up system defaults beyond places saying 'use update-alternatives' - I wasn't able to find a list that said 'if you want to change the default x program, you need to look at alternative y'. Is there such a list, for future reference? -- rbmj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
