Public bug reported: Chromium adds these MIME entries that over the default browser (firefox nightly) settings on my computer. This quite annoying because I have set Chromium not add itself as default browser nor check for it.
Even after I delete the entries, Chromium adds them on next reboot. This *really* bad ! /usr/local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache [MIME Cache] application/earthviewer=google-earth.desktop; application/keyhole=google-earth.desktop; application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml=google-earth.desktop; application/vnd.google-earth.kmz=google-earth.desktop; application/xhtml_xml=google-chrome.desktop; text/html=google-chrome.desktop; text/xml=google-chrome.desktop; x-scheme-handler/ftp=google-chrome.desktop; x-scheme-handler/http=google-chrome.desktop; x-scheme-handler/https=google-chrome.desktop; ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: chromium-browser (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-15.26-generic 3.0.13 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-15-generic i686 ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri Feb 3 14:43:34 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: chromium-browser UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-24 (102 days ago) ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 oneiric running-unity ** Summary changed: - Chrome over-rides default mime settings + Chrome constantly makes itself the default browser: overrides default mime settings ** Package changed: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) => ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926058 Title: Chrome constantly makes itself the default browser: overrides default mime settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/926058/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
