Public bug reported:
/etc/xdg/midori/config contains:
[settings]
homepage=file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html
which naturally isn't present in derivatives, and so in for example Kubuntu
(and presumably any derivative distribution that doesn't unclude the
ubuntu-artwork package) you get an ugly "Error opening file: No such file or
directory" as your default homepage.
Looking at the dependencies, merely making ubuntu-artwork a dependency
of midori wouldn't be good, since it pulls in a bunch of cruft that
folks running other desktops wouldn't need namely a bevy of GTK theme
packages). But looking upstream, Debian defaults to
homepage=file:///usr/share/doc/midori/faq.html
which is in fact installed by the midori package in the Ubuntu repos,
and so seems like an entirely reasonable, DE-agnostic choice.
