Description Sergio Basto 2010-01-28 18:34:08 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #525449 +++

Description of problem:
I've changed default browser from firefox to midori, but links from evolution are still opened in firefox.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.28.2-1.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change default browser from gnome's default to seamokey
2. Clink on FTP link in evolution
  
Actual results:
FTP Link opened in firefox

Expected results:
FTP Link opened in seamonkey

Additional info:

gnome-appearance-properties I set default browser to seamonkey

but I click in a FTP link and gives me a stupid error : 
Could not open the link:
Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3/firefox" (No such file or directory)
how I change this behavior ?

And with a stupid messages 
Could not open the link:
Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3/firefox" (No such file
or directory)


This is not the same problem,  I use KDE
Comment 3 Sergio Basto 2010-01-28 21:19:36 UTC 
more if I put firefox again on gnome-default-applications-properties, _FTP_ links still gives me the  stupid message 
Could not open the link:
Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-3.5.3/firefox" (No such file
or directory)
because I have install firefox on /usr/lib/firefox-3.5.6/
I reboot the machine , and still have the problem .

but this is only with FTP links like  ftp://blabla.com

This is not an evolution problem but a problem in control-center or even deeper in glib2. It's already discussed in bug 469169.
