           Summary: External URLs open from /var/tmp cache
           Product: amarok
           Version: 1.4.4
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: amarok-bugs-dist kde org
        ReportedBy: sites hubmed org


Version:           1.4.4 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

I'm running Amarok compiled from svn, on top of Gnome (Ubuntu). Links in the ContextBrowser prefixed with externalurl: are supposed to open in the web browser set in Amarok's preferences. I've tried setting the browser there, and everywhere else I can think of, but linked pages are always downloaded and opened in Firefox from /var/tmp/kdecache...

This isn't a real solution, but it works for now:
