Public bug reported:
In an email with a URL in it, the URL is highlighted as usual, and the
usual copy and open choices appear. The copy choice works. The open
choice, however, silently does nothing. No output on stderr, either.
Found problem: fiesty->gutsy upgrade messed with "prefered browser" in
gnome-control-center and it was lanuching a non-existent command. The fix is
to set it back to firefox. The question is, why did the upgrade mess with it
at all?
