Description

When you install all the Java packages in Add/Remove Applications, the Epiphany browser gets installed AND becomes the default browser.

Forum user Ivaylo has some ideas on how this could be fixed. He says ...

I think there are two possible ways to fix this:

* Add Abrowser and IceCat to the dependency list of icedtea-plugin, or
* Make firefox virtual package that depends on Abrowser and IceCat (or
something similar to that).

It installs midori if you are in Trisquel Mini. I removed midori, installed Abrowser and tried to install IcedTea... midori came together.
