Closing per comment #3, and because this appears to be fixed. On my
machine where chromium is my preferred browser, the default alternative
remains firefox:
$ LANG=C sudo update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser
There are 2 choices for the alternative gnome-www-browser (providing
/usr/bin/gnome-www-browser).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/bin/firefox 40 auto mode
1 /usr/bin/chromium-browser 40 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/firefox 40 manual mode
** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
