Public bug reported:
I have used the Preferred Applications dialog to set up a custom browser
function, so that I can tell firefox to open the URL in a new tab in a
particular profile (I always have two firefox instances open with different
profiles):
firefox -P default -remote "openurl(%s, new-tab)"
I can verify this has been set using
gconftool --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command
However, when I try and open a URL it fails. On investigation, running
gnome-open http://google.com/
runs
firefox -P default -remote "openurl(, new-tab)" http://google.com/
So basically rather than replacing the %s with the URL, it removes the
%s and appends the URL
