Ran into this problem as MusicBrainz Picard was unable to open the
browser (it's not Apport-specific).

Quoting Matthew Nuzum:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gconftool --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command
firefox -remote "openurl(%s,new-tab)"

It was the same in my installation.  The problem is the presence of the
double quotes.  The fix is simple:

gconftool --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command --type=string
'firefox -remote openurl(%s,new-tab)'

This bug should probably be reassigned somewhere, but I am not familiar
enough with Gnome to say if it's Firefox or GConf that's at fault here
for defaulting to the broken value.
