Details

Following up on multiple incorrect reports/bug reopenings for PDF Viewer connected with Firefox misconfiguration (e.g. bug 842943). STR: 1. Open Options/Preferences->Applications; 2. Set "Web Feed" to "use other..." then "/usr/bin/firefox" (or use default program when firefox is selected to browse local RSS); 3. Open "http://www.npr.org/rss/rss.php?id=1001"; Notice that step 2 does not involve PDF viewer. Actual result: Lots of tabs are opened Expected result: User shall be warned about bad change or stop opening the tabs

Kinda nasty. What's a good home for this? I've seen something like this on Windows on a new laptop whose profile I copied from the old laptop. Continued after I installed adobe PDF on the new laptop, and tools | options looks to be correct.
