Bug Description
If environment variable BROWSER isn't set, sensible-browser always shows this error message:
usage: which [-as] program ...
even though it goes on and opens the browser.
It's easy to reproduce:
$ unset BROWSER
$ sensible-browser http://
The bug is right at the beginning:
# Prevent recursive loops, where these values are set to this script
p="$(which sensible-browser)"
[ "$(which $BROWSER || true)" = "$p" ] && BROWSER=
It could be fixed with:
[ -n "$BROWSER" -a "$(which "$BROWSER")" = "$p" ] && BROWSER=
