Some time before I have noted, that when I try to open links from pidgin or from claws-mail, I got them opened in chromium, but I always got an annoying error message: "Failed to execute default Web Browser. Input/output error." When I select the other system browser in preferred applications (firefox, midory), than no error appears. Also, I don't know why, but there is TWO(?) chromiums in the list box: one this chromium icon, and the other with default application icon. Actually, I have only 1 chromium installed. Reproducible: Always

Xfce has had chromimum support since 4.10 wrt bug 388853. Unless angelos uses chromium, I certainly won't even test this... it's likely local bad .desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications/* (just a guess)
Is this possibly another symptom of bug #436478 ? I'm running XFCE here and didn't notice the problem.

It also came out of nowhere, so I don't think it's a bad .desktop.

Could you check if the command your DE uses prints anything in the terminal emulator? There could be some error messages there leading to more clues.
