Hello, dear lazynet, I have a problem and I am not sure which is the best approach to tackle it.
Observation: various programs use the XDG mechanism (freedesktop configuration method) to start a specific browser to visit a hyperlink. Easy to verify with the xdg-open tool. But how can I change this setting in a persistent way especially when I don't use Gnome or Kde or Xfce? I tried LxQt once and apparently the stupid thing has reset some configuration and now xdg-open starts Qupzilla which I don't like. Before, some other stupid program has reset it to Chromium which I don't like either. How can I configure this, and do that in a way that is set persisently? i.e. no program or package changes the setting to its own yard. NOTE: I will not install the monster just to change this simple setting. Feels like things that have been established in a sane way (alternatives system and sensible-browser) are now reverted to the chaos we used to manage in the nineties :-( Regards, Eduard.
