Description Todd 2019-03-29 20:53:39 CET 
Preferred application --> web browser is set to Firefox, but default calls to a web browser still start Midori.  AHHHH !!!!!
Comment 1 Theo Linkspfeifer editbugs 2019-03-30 12:07:07 CET 
Which browser does the following command launch?

exo-open --launch WebBrowser

Furthermore, are there any MIME types still associated with Midori?

Comment 2 Todd 2019-03-30 12:26:10 CET 
I removed Midori.  There are no longer any Mime types associated with Midori any more.  There are no Mime types associated   with Firefox either, or so the search says.   The command starts Firefox.

Every Fedora I have has had this issue.  Removing Mirori has always solved it.

Can you reproduce on your system?

Might be related to https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15046 ?

I pushed a commit that may help with this issue. Can you try out git master?

Marking resolved since it's related to #15046. Please reopen if it's not resolved by Exo 0.12.6.
