Title:
can't set Epiphany as default browser
Status in “epiphany-browser” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy), which has Epiphany 3.6.1. I have
Epiphany installed on my system and I'd like to set it as default, but
it doesn't show up in the list of browsers to choose from in System
Settings->Details->Default Applications->Web.
The problem is that /usr/share/applications/epiphany.desktop does not
include 'x-scheme-handler/http' in its MimeType list. This MIME type
must appear there in order for the control center to recognize this as
a Web browser. Note that 'x-scheme-handler/http' *does* appear in
epiphany.desktop.in.in in the Epiphany 3.6.1 sources (see
https://git.gnome.org/browse/epiphany/tree/data/epiphany.desktop.in.in?h=gnome-3-6).
So I believe this is an Ubuntu packaging bug.
