 When I set tor as the default browser, and click on a link in another
 application (e.g. Thunderbird), the tab doesn't open. I can use the tor
 browser properly, and a corresponding onion logo appears in Ubuntu's
 launcher when I do. With tor set as default, when you click a link, you
 can see another blue world logo, also labeled tor browser, briefly appear
 in the launcher before closing without ever displaying the page.

 my /etc/apt/sources.list includes this:

  $ dpkg -l tor tor-browser
