Package: icedove
Severity: normal
Under a default debian system with a GNOME Desktop Environment you can
set your preferred browser to 'Iceweasel' but some applications use the
x-www-browser defined with update-alternatives. This is not intuitive
for a modern desktop and most common users should not and would not want
to be forced to use the console to update this setting. Also it makes
the desktops inconsistent. icedove is one of the applications using
x-www-browser instead of what is defined in GNOME's settings. That is
bad behaviour.
Better would be: It should take the GNOME settings (or maybe KDE, don't
know that because i am not using it) into account.
If the DE sets a browser, it should use this one with higher priority
then the system-wide alternative.
Best Regards
Patrick
