Chromium is doing what it should (saying that it can handle the http protocol.) The issue is a change in glib (in how it finds url/mime handlers) which is not yet matched with an update to the gnome settings panel for preferred applications.
The new system is kinda cool (follows an XDG specification instead of using gconf.) Hopefully this will result in a common way of selecting url/mime handlers that all desktop environments use. So, until they get the gui preferences thing updated, here's how to set handlers with the new glib: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612985#31 http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/02/msg00479.html This bug should probably be reassigned and set as a duplicate of http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=613381 but I'll let someone more experienced make that call.
