You are correct. It should. The bug is in a script that changes the x
-www-browser file. I am marking the bug as confirmed and will edit the
description for the developers. In the meantime in order to get a
choice of a preferred web browser, uninstall epiphany since you do not
use it anyway.
x-www-browser is an alternative, managed by the alternatives system.
Alternatives are known to suck (they are system-wide preferences, and
*not* user preferences). If update-manager really is using x-www-
browser, then it needs fixing to not use that.
In any case, this doesn't have anything to do

There also appears to be enough information for the developers to work
on this report, so I am marking it Triaged by request of

I haven't used the GNOME browser at all... and firefox %s is the
command issued anyway when i select Firefox...
Update-manager is using the code x-www-browser to open the default
browser. Unfortunately, the preference settings GUI is not really
changing the default browser in x-www-browser. As long as epiphany is
installed it has preference over other browsers when executing the
command x-www-browser.

I tried again today - clicked on the link
https://launchpad.net/bugs/699885 in Update Manager when looking at
linux-headers-2-6-28-32 changes... GNOME Web Browser opened up rather
than Firefox - when I have Firefox set as my Preferred Browser.
Surely Update Manager should look at my preferences.
nautilus has nothing to do with this. Without understanding how update-
manager opens the browser and doing more investigation, you should just
leave the bug there

Ok. I am not able to reproduce on my machine at the moment using the
same update-manager version. Please retest when possible and report
back with the results. It may have been a one time anomaly. If not we
can investigate further. Please disregard the package reassignment
error, my mistake.

I was unable to reproduce this issue in Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64. When I
clicked on the Launchpad report in Update Manager, it pulled up in
Firefox with no issues.
