Comment 10 for bug 1590737

I am having the same problem with webbrowser-app. My machine :
Lenovo ThinkPad X230
Memory : 7,5GiB
Processor : Intel® Core™ i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz × 4
Graphics : Intel® Ivybridge Mobile
OS Type : Ubuntu 16.04LTS 64bit
Disk : 228,0GB SSD

I used to use "webbrowser" to work under WordPress because some functionalities are no more operational with Chrome; For couple of months now I can't use "webbrowser". I tried to uninstall it, reinstall it, no way!

PS : I am not an Ubuntu specialist but a basic user who doesn't want to deal anymore with MicroSoft Windows ...

here is my log in terminal when I input webbrowser-app, if this may help :
