This does indeed change the setting of xdg-mime query default text/html
(for which, thanks) but it does not effect a change to the browser
executed by the RMB click.
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
