[Desktop-packages] [Bug 574342] Re: GIMP set as default pdf viewer
This is still present with Kubuntu 14.04. This (oddly enough) appears to have something to do with Firefox. If I open a PDF within Dolphin, it opens with Okular like it should. If I download a PDF and click the download button in FF to open it, it opens in Gimp. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gimp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574342 Title: GIMP set as default pdf viewer Status in gimp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gimp After installing GIMP on Lucid, GIMP became the default application to open PDF files, instead of evince.

The previous comments (and linked bugs for e.g. Firefox) seem to disagree - this appears to be due to wrong use of the file where every application on a system is supposed to announce what mime types they can handle. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gimp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574342 Title: GIMP set as default pdf viewer Status in gimp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gimp After installing GIMP on Lucid, GIMP became the default application to open PDF files, instead of evince.

This is a bug with GIMP, obviously. The solution is to avoid GIMP setting itself as a PDF viewer: GIMP is not a viewer.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 574342] Re: GIMP set as default pdf viewer
On Ubuntu 12.04 at least, firefox honors what is present as default at /usr/share/applications/defaults.list If the application that is defined there is not present, then it picks the first one from /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache which is build in random order. In our systems we use KDE, but evince was present in /usr/share/applications/defaults.list as the default app. Since evince was not installed on the system Firefox locked for another option on /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache and GIMP was the first. Solution: replace evince with kde4-okularApplication_pdf and firefox will launch okular instead of GIMP. Example: application/pdf=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/postscript=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/x-cbr=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/x-cbz=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/x-gzpostscript=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gimp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574342 Title: GIMP set as default pdf viewer Status in “gimp” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gimp After installing GIMP on Lucid, GIMP became the default application to open PDF files, instead of evince.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 574342] Re: GIMP set as default pdf viewer
Still the issue with 12.04 :( Because of this bug Zotero/Firefox opens pdf attachements in gimp. And it does so without asking which application to use - you double click on pdf file, and it opens in gimp (instead of shiny okular0.15 with really embeddable annotations). The easy solution which some really use is to remove gimp, others take a harder way of installing mozplugger, braves modify /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gimp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574342 Title: GIMP set as default pdf viewer Status in “gimp” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gimp After installing GIMP on Lucid, GIMP became the default application to open PDF files, instead of evince.
