Ok, I guess we will file the report against the update-manager. Yes you can remove gnome-dbg.
** Description changed: - -------------------- Bug summary: Seems that a script in gnome-control-center is not acting properly. [[/usr/bin/gnome-default-applications-properties]] The GUI does not edit the default browser located in the script x-www-browser. As long as epiphany-browser is installed, it remains the default browser even when editing gnome-default-applications-properties. In order to change the default browser launched by the script "x-www-browser", one needs to run the following command manually: update-alternatives --config x-www-browser + + Recommend using another script to execute the "default" browser in + update-manager. -------------------- I fired up Update Manager to check what fixes were waiting - decided to have a look at the related Launchpad report against one of the kernel updates... instead of opening up a tab in Firefox as I expected, it started another program called the "Gnome Web Browser". In turn, this messed up my audio playback - I had to reboot to get my audio back. This affected ALL audio playback whether from my browser or from other audio apps (Totem, Rhythmbox etc). I tested with iPlayer - and while I could watch images, there was no audio at all until I rebooted. I have Firefox set as my default browser in System Preferences - surely this option should be used by all apps requesting web-page output? What was concerning was - I had Firefox open at the time - Expected behaviour... that the Launchpad page would open up in a new tab within Firefox. Please fix.
