Description of problem: Although Firefox is set as default browser in System -> Preferences -> Personal -> Preferred Applications, it asks to be the default browser every time it is run. What is the issue, is that it sets the following value: /usr/lib64/firefox-3.0b3pre/firefox "%s" which causes the plugins to be not detected Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-3.0-0.beta2.12.nightly20080121.fc9.x86_64 xulrunner-1.9-0.beta2.14.nightly20080121.fc9.x86_64 nss-3.11.99.3-1.fc9.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install the said version of firefox 2. Run it using htmlview 3. Answer yes to the question about making firefox the default Actual results: A non-working command is set Expected results: A working command is set, or even better, firefox respects the gnome settings Additional info: This can be related to a recent xulrunner or nss update, since I remember everything was working fine a while ago. I am running Fedora 8 if that matters, only firefox and required deps are from rawhide.
I just committed something which ought to fix this next time we do a build (in the next few days).
