Comment 10 for bug 353372

Hi again :-)

I do not know what the context of patch 7 is. In looking thru the boinc trunk code
==============
void CViewProjects::OnProjectWebsiteClicked( wxEvent& event ) {
<SNIP>
    pFrame->UpdateStatusText(_("Launching browser..."));
    wxLaunchDefaultBrowser(
        m_TaskGroups[1]->m_Tasks[website_task_index]->m_strWebSiteLink
    );
    pFrame->UpdateStatusText(wxT(""));
<SNIP>
}
==============
and actually executing it, I see the frame text "Launching browser..." and see it erased almost instantly, so I know that wxLaunchDefaultBrowser was executed (or so it would seem). Boincmgr does launch epiphany, but only after I set epiphany as the default browser in gnome. Firefox is ignored and the env variable BROWSER remains firefox irregardless of what the default app assigns for the browser.

I have only the object to wxWidgets, not the source to review. Where was the patch appled that you listed in comment 7?
Maybe the bug I am trying to report needs to be submitted elsewere or is not the bug this thread is about.

Thanks!
