Package: gnome-terminal Version: 2.8.2-2 Severity: normal
gnome-terminal appears to respect x-www-browser when I right-click -> Open Link on a http:// url. However, if it is an https:// url it starts epiphany to visit the url, rather than x-www-browser. There doesn't seem to be an obvious way to change this.
Hi,
Maybe should you run gnome-control-center, go to Advanced->Preferred Applications and set Web Browser to "Debian Sensible Browser".
If it doesn't work, you can also manually edit $HOME/.gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https/%gconf.xml
Gnome-terminal being the only Gnome application I use, it's been quite a suprise to discover that the default behaviour is to launch epiphany (which I haven't installed) for http/https urls. It would have saved me some time if the default browser had been sensible-browser.
Therefore, I suggest to replace epiphany with sensible-browser in /usr/share/gconf/schemas/desktop_gnome_url_handlers.schemas (libgnomevfs2-common package).
Regards,
Xavier
