Still a bug in Xubuntu 13.04 (Raring) and 13.10 (Saucy daily). Whenever I open the Settings Manager > Preferred Applications > Internet panel, the Web Browser indicates no selection. But, I have set this dozens of times to "Chromium". (-:
Here is my exact sequence: 1) I set the default browser to Chromium. 2) I click on a link in Thunderbird mail. 3) Chromium (chromium-browser package) launches and reports that it is no longer the default browser - what do you want to do? 4) Launch Settings Manager who shows that Chromium is still the default browser. 5) Alt-tab back to Chromium. Click set as default. 6) Alt-tab back to Settings Manager. Go up and then back to Preferred Applications. 7) Back to square one: I can see No application selected again. Aiyyyyyyyy! It must be Chromium that is causing this. A default of Firefox has no issues that I can see (tested). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/794720 Title: xubuntu desktop fails to respect "preferred applications" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/794720/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
