I am using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS desktop, 64-bit; updated as prompted by Synaptic.
My e-mail client is mozilla-thunderbird; firefox is selected as "Web Browser" in "Preferred Applications". After experiencing Bug #89023, I "Completely Removed" firefox (and thunderbird) using Synaptic. After re-booting, I installed firefox 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 and mozilla-thunderbird 1.5.0.9-0ubuntu0.6.06. See details https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/89023. Https function was restored in the case where firefox was already open, however, in the case where firefox is closed, thunderbird is open, and I click a link to an https site, the "Personal Security Manager" error message referred above and in the initial Bug #89023 report appears. I cannot open a link to https from within an e-mail unless firefox is already open. It appears that other browers, such as dillo and mozilla, work correctly as "Preferred Application". -- Opening firefox by clicking on links in thunderbird breaks https https://launchpad.net/bugs/57923 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
