Affects: control-center gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

The gnome-preferred-applications dialog does not set x-www-browser, which Thunderbird uses to choose the webbrowser to launch when clicking a link in an email.
Running update-alternatives --config x-www-browser manually and choosing the correct browser works.
