In intrepid: $ cat .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list [Added Associations] inode/directory=something.desktop;nautilus-folder-handler.desktop; $ cat .local/share/applications/something.desktop [Desktop Entry] Exec=vlc Terminal=false Type=Application The gnome-panel will launch vlc, while nautilus open "places" correctly in itself (when clicking in the sidebar). Actually, even if I remove "nautilus-folder-handler.desktop" from the list, it still works in nautilus. So why does nautilus have a different behaviour than gnome-panel ? Should it follow mimeapps.list ? Then I think there's a second bug, if there are more than one entry in mimeapps.list, and the first entry fails to launch, shouldn't it retry with the second entry, etc. ? For me the first entry was trying to launch wxvlc, which doesn't exist anymore in intrepid, shouldn't it try to launch nautilus instead of throwing an error message ? regards, Benoit -- :wq -- opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
