Title:
  clicking a link from gwibber launches  firefox instead of the default
  browser

Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:

  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gwibber

  i installed google-chrome and clicking links from any app starts chrome just fine. but gwibber seems to ignore the x-www-browser alternative. it's set correctly to google-chrome (as /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser is set properly). 
  gwibber seems to use webbrowser.py which should look for the right alternative but it looks like there's something going wrong there. perhaps this is a python2.7 webbrowser.py bug.
