From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Description of problem: By default, gnome-default-applications-properties sets the default browser to epiphany %s even though epiphany is not installed by default. This makes it so any HTML links (especially in Evolution or any other mail reader) do not work. Changing the default to mozilla %s fixes the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-utils-2.5.90-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open up evolution 2.Click on an HTML link in an email 3. Actual Results: Nothing happens Expected Results: A browser that is installed on the computer (ie Mozilla or HTMLView) should open up to show the link you clicked. Additional info:
Yes, I experienced the same thing, except https is also set the same way. Mozilla should be set as default, or htmlview or some non-partisan command that is setup like an alternitives type thing so it links/relates to what is installed, or something along those lines.
* Fri Apr 16 2004 Alexander Larsson <alexl> 2.6.0-5 - Make mozilla default http handler since epi might not be installed This should be fixed in gnome-vfs2-2.6.0-5. Please verify by testing a new user account. Close this bug after you have verified please.
Works for me! Thanks. Closing bug.
