Thank you for your report, but this isn't a bug in libgnome. libglib /
libgio does all the work for this, and it behaves as expected (it uses
the current users preferences, which if you have launched it via sudo or
gksu, will be the root user).
I think you've misunderstood what the environment is when referring to
"gksu -k" preserving the users environment. Your users environment does
not include user settings (such as what applications handle which
mimetypes), but the environment variables that are currently set. To
view your users environment, just type "env".
I'm closing this bug, as what you've described is not a bug, and the
application is behaving as expected.
Please feel free to report any other issues you find.
** Changed in: libgnome (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
** Tags removed: gksudo gnome-open mime sudo

"gnome-open" and "gksudo -k gnome-open" should open the same application
