Package: xdg-utils Version: 1.1.3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? After freshly installinng Debian buster with LXDE desktop I've found out that many programs such as syncthing, claws-mail, fossil etc are unable to open HTTP URLs in browser. Instead of opening browser window they pops up small dialog which reads file /home/vitus/http://localhost:8384 not found * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Investigation shows that root of problem is line 931 in the xdg-open script: if pcmanfm --help >/dev/null 2>&1 -a is_file_url_or_path "$1"; then Obvoisly it is error in the shell logic, and && should be used instead of -a. -a works as logical AND operator only in the command line of test(1) (AKA [ command), not when condition is exit code of arbitrary unix command. * What was the outcome of this action? Replacing this line with if pcmanfm --help >/dev/null 2>&1 && is_file_url_or_path "$1"; then Fixes the problem. -- Package-specific info: Desktop environment: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=LXDE -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled xdg-utils depends on no packages.
