Affects: deskbar-applet (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: Hey, Deskbar applet ships with a handler to search in a users bookmarks. It autodetects if a users default browser is firefox or epiphany This autodetection is broken and causes the bookmark search handler not to load. Reason: BrowserMatch.py checks the gconf key /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/ for the presence of either the firefox of epiphany string and loads the appropriate handler Unfortunately the said key contains gnome-www-browser %s so neither extension is loaded I presume that gnome-www-browser is an intermediary which checks the /gnome/applications/browser/exec gconf key for which web browser to launch To Repeat: 1) Remove deskbar from the panel 2) execute /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/deskbar-applet -w 3) Notice how none of the epiphany, galeon or firefox/mozilla handlers are loaded -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
