Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
Firefox was installed on a fresh kubuntu 10.04 by using the firefox-installer.
If you try to use an apt-link (e.g. apt://rekonq) firefox claims that the
protocol is not connected to a program (i have to translate it, so the exact
English error message could be slightly different).
You can connect firefox to apturl by adding a boolean in "about:config"
network.protocol-handler.expose.apt
+
now if you use an apt-link firefox asks for the program-name:
/usr/bin/apturl
This should be working out of the box. Cause Konqueror is no alternative
to firefox. Especially not for users without technical understanding.
