[Bug 551333] New: startkde.suse.sh should set Firefox as default browser in gconf again
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551333 Summary: startkde.suse.sh should set Firefox as default browser in gconf again Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: wolfgang@rosenauer.org QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer startkde.suse.sh should set Firefox as default browser in gconf again. That was already done in earlier milestones but got lost because people thought it might not be useful anymore with Firefox' basic KDE integration. Actually the reason why that is still useful is that gconf itself has epiphany set as default browser and only gconf2-branding-openSUSE throws firefox in there. With a usual KDE installation that doesn't get installed because of dependency hell to Gnome components. Now every application reading the default browser from gconf (Thunderbird as a popular example) would try to open epiphany what fails silently. The typical user has no idea how to fix that since with Firefox KDE integration you cannot even set Firefox as default anymore in gconf but only in KDE. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is either a GNOME packaging problem or incorrect GNOME defaults.

I added gconftool-2 -s --type=string /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command "/usr/bin/firefox \"%s\"" gconftool-2 -s --type=string /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https/command "/usr/bin/firefox \"%s\"" to an autostartscript which works - but this is only a workaround...

I think all you should need to do is download gconf2-branding-openSUSE in YAST software downloads and Firefox will open from Thunderbird as it should. The hell is that this is a relatively massive download as it installs lots of other things like mono and Tomcat that you don't need to solve this bug so the script solution is more elegant, but for techies. The posters assume that everyone and their dog would know that gconf2-branding-openSUSE is in effect the Gnome configuration package for openSUSE and that Thunderbird likes to read the Gnome configuration files in gconf, which is not set properly in KDE version for default browser. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
