Your question may, or may not, have a simple answer. It all depends on what you mean
by "default browser" and the desktop you're using as well as the applications calling
the browser.
Anyway, I use KDE as my DE and Chrome as my browser. I also use T-Bird for my mail
client where most of the links are that I want to open.
So, the following works for me....
xdg-settings set default-web-browser google-chrome.desktop
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler http google-chrome.desktop
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler https google-chrome.desktop
I have the same problem on F27. And it is quite annoying.
F27, KDE, Chrome, Thunderbird.
Using xdg-settings does not work *for me*, nor do the various settings
in the Thunderbird config, such as network.protocol-handler-app.http
Any other possibilities? Anyone? Bueller?
