Hmm. Running Jaunty, I recently let it auto-update and now all the
default search engines have disappeared, leading my to this bug. I have
both the firefox-3.0 and firefox-3.5 packages installed:
$ dpkg -l | grep firefox
ii firefox

update-alternatives --config x-www-browser

There are 2 alternatives which provide `x-www-browser'.

+1/usr/bin/firefox-3.0
* 2/usr/bin/firefox-3.5
Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number: 2
Using '/usr/bin/firefox-3.5'
EDIT:
update-alternatives --config x-www-browser: the output was correct BUT
Evolution was keeping opening the links in firefox 3
Firefox 3.5

Gnome keeps its URL handlers in gconf (desktopgnomeurl-handlershttp);
you may run gconf-editor to check it out. The value for [command] should
be x-www-browser %s so it uses /usr/bin/x-www-browser, which is a
symbolic link to /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser (another symlink).

This is fixed in karmic. In Jaunty, 3.5 is meant to be installed
alongside 3.0

Anyone has a quick fix for this, 3.0 + 3.5 installed (Jaunty). When I
follow a link in Evolution, FF 3.0 opens.
Expected result FF 3.5 opens

I made an approximate list of files in firefox-3.0 not present in firefox-3.5,
using:
diff ( firefox-3.0.filelist sed 's/-3[a-z0-9.]*/-3.*/g') (
firefox-3.5.filelist sed 's/-3[a-z0-9.]*/-3.*/g') |
perl -nwe 'chomp; print qx(grep -x $1 firefox-3.0.filelist) if /^ (.*)$/' |
sort -u |
This is partially a bug in firefox-3.0 also: it puts files directly in
common directories (/usr/lib/firefox-addons) and symlinks in the
version-specific directories (/usr/lib/firefox-3.*). So if the
firefox-3.5 were to provide those files also, they would conflict with
firefox-3.0 files.
