Web search: Deskbar does not notice when preferred browser changed
Last modified: 2008-01-17 16:57:23 UTC
Please describe the problem: Deskbar does not take note when I switch the default browser, it continues to use the old search settings. Steps to reproduce: 1. Verify that web search is enabled 2. switch your preferred browser, e.g. from epiphany to firefox or vice-versa 3. try to do a web search with deskbar Actual results: Old settings, in this case epihphany's intelligent bookmarks are used for performing the search Expected results: Deskbar should use firefox' search plugins, now that it has become the default browser Does this happen every time? yup. Other information: Running Debian Sid
