Package: icedove Severity: normal Under a default debian system with a GNOME Desktop Environment you can set your preferred browser to 'Iceweasel' but some applications use the x-www-browser defined with update-alternatives. This is not intuitive for a modern desktop and most common users should not and would not want to be forced to use the console to update this setting. Also it makes the desktops inconsistent. icedove is one of the applications using x-www-browser instead of what is defined in GNOME's settings. That is bad behaviour.
Better would be: It should take the GNOME settings (or maybe KDE, don't know that because i am not using it) into account. If the DE sets a browser, it should use this one with higher priority then the system-wide alternative. Best Regards Patrick
