[Desktop-packages] [Bug 853061] Re: New "Open with" in right click dialogue box does not allow custom commands
Proposed workaround: Adjust /usr/share/applications/defaults.list to point towards proper .desktop file for given MIME type. E.g. application/pdf=acroread.desktop instead of application/pdf=evince.desktop Use ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list for per-user settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/853061 Title: New "Open with" in right click dialogue box does not allow custom commands Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: New Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hi I dnn't know if this is a bug or a feature request.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.
