Package: libgnome2-0
Version: 2.30.0-1
Severity: normal
The gnome-open man page shows that gnome-open can be used to start applications
by passing the name of their .desktop file, but this doesn't work:
sascha.silbe@twin:~$ gnome-open /usr/share/applications/conkeror.desktop
Error showing url: No application is registered as handling this file
sascha.silbe@twin:~$
Excerpt from man page:
> Possible useless use of gnome-open
> gnome-open /usr/share/applications/gedit.desktop
This feature would have been useful to me as it avoids having to interpret the
Exec key of the .desktop file (unquoting, parameter expansion, etc.).
