Description

Bug report being filed as per this forum topic:
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/abroswer-start-page-search-bar

User would like to set custom search engine on aBrowser about:home but DuckDuckGo is hardcoded regardless of default search engine selected. Can be fixed in the following zipped file /usr/lib/abrowser/browser/omni.ja - you can edit it via 'mkdir ~/omniunpacked', 'unzip omni.ja -d ~/omniunpacked' "cd ~/omniunpacked/chrome/browser/content/browser/abouthome", "nano aboutHome.xhtml", then replace the entire searchContainer div with the official one:

Sorry, pastebin code without licensing and authorship info is automatically proprietary code under the DCMA trenche of copyright treaties. If you want to submit code you hold the copyright for as an attachment here then we can accept it.

Tip: to get past the file upload extension filter just gzip it to a blah.gz file.
