guihkx 5162e5c553 linux: fix URLs not opening in PyInstaller package ...

Because PyInstaller modifies the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
to make things work correctly on Linux, when we try to launch any
subprocess (such as the web browser), that modified variable gets
picked up as well, causing things to go south.

To work around this Linux-only problem, we have to:

1. Save the current value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
2. Move the value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH_ORIG to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
3. Launch subprocess
4. Restore the saved LD_LIBRARY_PATH again
