Bug#370097: gnome-control-center: Prefered Applications has gnome-www-browser (a non-existant program) as the default web browser

[Eduardo Silva]

Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.12.3-2
Severity: normal

Hope I've sent the bug to the right package. I've just installed today 
Debian etch (using a netinstall CD), and chose to install the Desktop 
environment.
In Gnome, in the Prefered Applications window, gnome-www-browser is 
selected. But when this functionality is required, gnome complains that 
there is no such program.
This is the description of the package (translated from portuguese):

No candidate version was found for gnome-www-browser 
Package: gnome-www-browser
State: not a real package

I suggest putting firefox.
