I was having this problem with chromium-browser as the default browser. However I checked my "Preferred Applications" settings and it turns out that I had "/path/to/chromium-browser" instead of "/path/to/chromium- browser %s". Changing this (or selecting "Chromium" from the drop-down list in Preferred Applications) fixed the problem. I have the feeling that this was the problem the original reporter was having.
Other applications run fine without "%s" in the default browser string, which suggests they deal with this case by appending the URL as an argument to the command. An example is update-manager -- changelogs are opened in chromium without problems with or without "%s". Perhaps it would help if gwibber did this too. -- Gwibber does not open links properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385873 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
