Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

It is not possible to change which browser that opens a .desktop file with a web location (URL).

I have set Iceweasel as the default browser in Preferred Applications.



I have also set Iceweasel as the default browser using the following commands:

update-alternatives --config x-www-browser

update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser

gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command --type string 'iceweasel -new-tab "%s"' && gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https/command --type string 'iceweasel -new-tab "%s"'


I can not find any option for "Open with..."

Right clicking the .desktop file only shows "Open"



Iceweasel opens all other links I have tried so far, from the terminal, Icedove, gnome-open etc.

In the file manager pcmanfm, it is possible to right click the .desktop file and then choose "Open with.." and then choose "Iceweasel Web Browser"


I created the .desktop file by right clicking the desktop and choosing "Create launcher". I set Type to Location, type in the name test and the Location http://www.debian.org/ and click OK.
