Change the default web browser

After I read about the new terms of use for Firefox (see links at the bottom), I wanted to give LibreWolf a try.

Installation

On Ubuntu I added the external Debian repository:

Installation instructions for Debian based

On Void Linux I added an extra repository from GitHub:

index-0/librewolf-void

Set as default browser

I used xdg-settings to define LibreWolf as my default web browser:

xdg-settings set default-web-browser librewolf.desktop

On my Void Linux machine I had to install the package xdg-utils first because the xdg-settings command was missing:

sudo xbps-install -Su xdg-utils

To ensure that librewolf.desktop exists you can take a look into the directory `/usr/share/application`.
