Public bug reported:
sensible-browser does not use the preferred browser as specified in
gnome-default-applications-properties.
I have selected Epiphany as my favorite browser, with openning links in
new tab by default. So my default browser command is "epiphany --new-tab
%s". sensible-browser only run "epiphany %s" (because of how it is
designed currently, with simlinks).
A common problem for me is when I want to open a link from xchat, xchat
calls sensible-browser and it runs a new epiphany window instead of
opening it in my current window in a new tab.
A quick fix is to set the BROWSER environment variable to the browser
command.
