Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager
On a system running xubuntu-desktop the update-manager doesn't open the browser set in 'prefered applications'. Instead it opens up firefox 3 apparently via gnome-open. This is a really annoying behavior in my case because I still prefer firefox2 for extension support. Whenever FF3 gets open my FF2 profile gets completely trashed and I have to restore from my backup It seems like you should either add exo-open, or drop the gnome-open and rely on only on starting x-www-browser See ChangelogViewer.py line 170, and ReleaseNotesViewer.py line 121 ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- update-manager opens wrong browser https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240473 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
