Package: google-chrome-beta
Version: 13.0.782.24-r89139
Severity: normal
I am using XFCE as my desktop environment. I have also installed
Google Chrome Beta from Google's website. Using the XFCE settings manager,
I set Chrome as the default browser. When I opened Chrome the first time,
it asked me whether I wanted to set Chrome as the default browser. I pressed
"Yes". Later, I realized that Chrome had actually become unset as the default
browser. Essentially, when I choose to make Chrome the default browser from
Chrome's settings manager, it becomes unset as the default browser in the XFCE
settings. This suggests that there is some sort of conflict between Chrome
and XFCE. I know this is a somewhat sticky issue because Google Chrome is not
maintained by Debian and it is not really a big problem, but I thought it
would send this report anyway.

Hi,
you reported a bug in Debian against google-chrome-beta, a package not
available in Debian.
Debian does not ship google-chrome-beta (or any google-chrome), but its
free alternative called chromium (see chromium-browser package for more
information).
Please either use chromium and report a bug against chromium-browser if
you can reproduce the but, or, if you would like to continue to use
google-chroome, ask Google for support for it.
Regards,
Daniel
