Is this a SUSE package? Has your installation by chance moved to a 
different location? I have seen a similar thing happen before. The 
following is worth trying:

1) type in about:config in the URL box.
2) search for browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser
3) If set to false, which is my guess, double-click the setting which 
should set it to true.
4) Restart firefox and when prompted select yes for setting as default 
browser.

Hope this helps,
