Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

I use chromium-browser in Ubuntu 10.04 RC.

I selected chromium-browser in the dialog of gnome-default-applications-properties, and it actually worked as a default web browser. However, when I opened the preference window of the browser, I found the message "Chromium is not currently your default browser". Then I clicked "Make Chromium my default browser" button, but default browser in gnome-default-applications-properties incorrectly changed to "Custom", so chromium became non-default browser.

$ apt-cache policy gnome-control-center chromium-browser
