Title: Can't make Chromium my default web browser Status in Chromium Browser: Unknown Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “chromium-browser” source package in Natty: Triaged Status in “chromium-browser” source package in Oneiric: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: chromium-browser Every time I start Chromium it says it's not the default browser and asks if I want to make it so, and every time I say "yes", but that has no effect. Neither does going to Preferences -> Basic -> Default Browser and clicking on the "Make Chromium My Default Browser" button. My default browser remains set to Firefox :-(.
