Hi,

I'm using gnome 2.23 (ubuntu intrepid).

When I execute "xdg-open http://google.com" (in gnome-terminal) The google website opens in epiphany while my default browser is set to firefox.

I don't know how xdg-open decides what program/browser to open but clearly this is not what I want.

This should be fixed in git (and recent 1.1.0-rc release)
