Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

On a system running xubuntu-desktop the update-manager doesn't open the
browser set in 'prefered applications'.  Instead it opens up firefox 3
apparently via gnome-open.

This is a really annoying behavior in my case because I still prefer
firefox2 for extension support.  Whenever FF3 gets open my FF2 profile
gets completely trashed and I have to restore from my backup

It seems like you should either add exo-open, or drop the gnome-open and
rely on only on starting x-www-browser

See ChangelogViewer.py line 170, and ReleaseNotesViewer.py line 121
