Package: icedove
Version: 3.0.1-2
Severity: normal
Hi!
I see the same behaviour. It's a converted profile from icedove-2.x,
and I'm not running a GNOME or KDE environment, only plain fluxbox.
strace shows upon clicking an URL:
[pid 4490] execve("/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox",
["/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox",
"http://www.snowtrex.de/oesterrei";...], [/* 50 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
The icedove package doesn't contain any reference to mozilla-firefox, at
least I wasn't able to find them with grep and strings. Same holds true
for stuff in /etc/, but I found a local config entry in ~/.gconf/:
desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https/%gconf.xml:
<stringvalue>/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox "%s"</stringvalue>
desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/%gconf.xml:
<stringvalue>/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox "%s"</stringvalue>
desktop/gnome/url-handlers/gopher/%gconf.xml:
<stringvalue>/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox "%s"</stringvalue>
desktop/gnome/url-handlers/chrome/%gconf.xml:
<stringvalue>/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox "%s"</stringvalue>
desktop/gnome/url-handlers/ftp/%gconf.xml:
<stringvalue>/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox "%s"</stringvalue>
That's the culprit.
I then went to iceweasel's (weasel!) preference menu, chose the
Advanced-Tab/General and made Iceweasel the default browser.
(section System Defaults)
One could argue that icedove shouldn't care about the GNOME setting,
but simply call x-www-browser. I guess that's the question what's more
important: system preferences (x-www-browser via /etc/alternatives
or user preferences via ~/.gconf). YMMV.
