Ok, from the post linked by Patrick, try the following:
xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/http
xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/https
If those point to the wrong browser, then do:
xdg-mime default x-scheme-handler/http google-chrome.desktop
xdg-mime default x-scheme-handler/https google-chrome.desktop

Thanks. Got that.
I've been searching for everywhere that 'firefox' occurs in a config
file. There are quite a few. I'm currently searching /usr/share. When
that's done I'll try the ultimate admission of failure -- reboot :-)
did update-desktop-database, of course
