Not sure if this needs to be re-opened or if it's a new issue, but the functionality is broken in xdg-utils-1.1.0-0.6.20110505.fc15.noarch.

Chrome will use the system supplied one if available, and it keeps asking me if it can be the default. I've tried both stable (Chrome 12) and unstable (Chrome 14) and both fail.

As an aside, why is which(1) stderr output redirected to stdout?
