Bug#824613: epiphany-browser: update-alternatives priority is too high

[Jeremy Bicha]

Subject: epiphany-browser: update-alternatives priority is too high
Package: gnome-documents
Version: 3.20.0-2
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Given that Epiphany has not been Debian's default browser since 2012 [1],
Epiphany's priority in Debian's update-alternatives system is set way too high.

I suggest lowering it below 40 so that either firefox or chromium are
preferred. At least I don't think it should be set higher than 40.

$ update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser
There are 3 choices for the alternative gnome-www-browser (providing
/usr/bin/gnome-www-browser).

  Selection    Path                       Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0            /usr/bin/epiphany-browser   85        auto mode
  1            /usr/bin/chromium-browser   40        manual mode
  2            /usr/bin/epiphany-browser   85        manual mode
