Confirmed fixed with chromium-browser 81.0.4044.129-0ubuntu0.19.10.1 from focal-proposed.
I verified update-alternatives couldn't be used to set the default value of [x-www-browser|gnome-www-browser] to /usr/bin/chromium-browser in a fully up-to-date focal VM, then I enabled focal-proposed for universe, ran "apt update" and "apt dist-upgrade" to install the updated chromium- browser package, and I verified that update-alternatives now accepted to set the default x-www-browser|gnome-www-browser. I also verified that running x-www-browser|gnome-www-browser did launch chromium-browser, as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1870640 Title: Does not register as x-www-browser alternative To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1870640/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
