Hey, I eventually tracked down a problem I had to this package. I
ended up being surprised by update-alternatives priority being higher
than other browsers' since "surf" didn't obviously seem like a
standalone browser (and for example, "tabbed" isn't even registered as
one).
Do you have any idea who I should talk to about getting it changed, or
much more importantly, whether the problem is with my expectations?
Adding in CC the original reporter so he can put some more information
if required.
I grepped through the lintian laboratory looking for all browser
registering x-www-browser alternative. Here are the results:
netsurf 100
konqueror 100
epiphany-browser 85
iceape 80
iceweasel 70
links2 69
surf 50
midori 50
dillo 50
rekonq 40
chromium-browser 40
chimera2 30
conkeror 20
uzbl 10
luakit 10
Priority 50 for this browser doesn't look completely crazy: there are
other niche browser with equal or even higher priority. The only
"mainstream" browser with lower priority is Chromium. Perhaps Chromium
priority should be bumped instead.
Thoughts? See also bug #630390.
