In KDE, I'm very used to simply type "man:foo" and have the man page of
"foo" pop up immediately in Konqueror without having to open a terminal
or anything.

However, since I installed Chromium and making it my default browser,
now "man:" brings up Chromium instead.  That doesn't work; instead of
displaying the man page, it downloads the *.bz2 from the local file
system :-/

How can I set Konqueror to be the program that handles KDE's "man:" command?

open system-settings. Open mime/applications/whatever submenu (called
'Dateizuordnungen' in German).

application-xtroff-man
and
application-xtroff-man-compressed

should be the things you have to set. Click on 'embedded' and choose KManPart

And that it is always shown in the embedded part.

We are talking about KDE here - not gnome. It should not be necessary to fiddle
with desktop files.

This is already set up that way. Except that x-troff-man-compressed is grayed out because there's no file extension listed.
