I've just updated from hardy to jaunty.

Right clicking on the url now offers the option to copy the url to the clickboard & works - thanks.
However, update-manager no longer honors the browser settings in gnome-default-applications-properties (System|Preferences|Preferred Applications), and only opens the url in Firefox. My browser settings are:

<fullpathtoSeaMonkey>/seamonkey -remote openURL("%s",new-tab)

and that works fine in hardy. In Jaunty w/the new patches, it doesn't matter if the browser is set to Opera, SeaMonkey, Epiphany, or any other browser, the update-manager url now only opens Firefox.

I have verified that other applications (OpenOffice - both Ubuntu & standard OpenOffice.org etc.) respect the gnome-default-applications-properties.
