My point is that the OP is asking why, when they click a link from within a GUI app that is running as root (synaptic), the wrong browser is launched. So what I am asking is, once the correct browser is set up via alternatives, isn't it going to launch seamonkey as root? Further implication being, it is good to learn about the alternatives system, but maybe not a great idea to solve this problem this way.
