[Bug 476853] Re: apturl doesn't work with Firefox

[Friedhelm]

Couldn't get Firefox (31.0) to work, but used this with Rekonq as a
workaround:

Add this line:
application/x-deb=AptURL.desktop;

to:
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

Works with Kubuntu 14.04 LTS and using Rekonq to access PlayDeb for me.
