I use vivaldi as my my web browser and I have it set as the default application for everything web related. In particular it get's used to open web links when you use the context menu to open a web link in a text file.
I want to install another browser (epiphany) as a backup/testing browser when I get the occasional problem viewing web pages with vivaldi. Using epiphany I can check if there's more likely something wrong with the web page or there's actually an issue with vivaldi. However, when I install epiphany it takes over every single thing that web browsers can do which is very frustrating, I only want to run it explicitly for testing. Is there any way to prevent the install changing all the mailcap and mime settings etc.? (I've got my vivaldi default settings back by purging epiphany but that's a bit extreme!) -- Chris Green ยท
