Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2020-03-16 09:15:36 UTC

My system thinks Konqueror is the default browser despite that not being true.

I bisected it to:
commit fbe3e5bf8327497703adf7c064f3c7aa6cfe54e2 (refs/bisect/bad)
Author: David Faure <faure@kde.org>
Date:   Mon Mar 9 01:24:10 2020 +0100

    KSycoca: avoid hitting an assert when writing a full path into mimeapps.list
    
    This isn't really standard anyway, but I happened to do that in a
    unittest to remove the need for extending search paths... and any code
    rebuilding sycoca would then hit
    ASSERT: "(*it2).service()->offset() != 0" in file kbuildservicefactory.cpp, line 402

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. kbuildsycoca5
2. kcmshell5 componentchooser

OBSERVED RESULT
Wrong browser

EXPECTED RESULT
Correct browser. Reverting the aforementioned commit fixes it.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
(Is this an attempt to get people to use Konqueror again? :p)
