One addendum, we'll have to test it both ways, but I think we'll have to
keep:
systesmsettings5->Applications->Default Applications->Web Browser
Open http and https URLs option set to
"in an application based on the contents of the URL"
(as it is currently) rather than static browser entry, to be on the safe
side.
This is how things are set in Fedora Jam (which basically adds
packages on top of KDE spin) and it seems to work. The only other
browser-related change (I think) is Firefox is included in the
Favourites menu.
