I'm not running KDE on the desktop, so as far as I have noticed here it only 
happens when I click on a URL in an email in Kmail.  This happens every time 
without failure.  Other apps seem to operate normally.

I assume it is a KDE problem.

However, in the KDE File Associations, libreoffice is not showing anywhere in 
html or text as a relevant application to open such files with.  So, I'm 
assuming some other setting is pulling it in.
