Hello,

A few programs that I use, in turn use xdg-open. With web-pages, it gets
it completely wrong, no matter what I do:

% xdg-settings get default-web-browser
chromium.desktop
% echo $BROWSER
chromium


 % grep -i bin /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/chromium.desktop
/usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop
/usr/share/xfce4/helpers/chromium.desktop:X-XFCE-Binaries=chromium;chromium-browser;
/usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop:Exec=/usr/bin/chromium %U


But what does that damn thing open? Firefox...

What can I do ...?
