[Bug 232379] Re: cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents
I get a similar issue with Inkscape files (on Hardy). Double-clicking in Nautilus runs Inkscape, but selecting the same file from Places-Recent Documents runs Eye of Gnome. -- cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I also confirm jarav comment. Opening .chm files through recent documents fails while it opens correctly in chmsee through nautilus. ** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-panel When opening Gimp .xcf files from Places Recent Documents, I get the following message: Could not open recently used document file:///media/disk/Johnny5/johnny5.xcf Could not find a suitable application.

I am experiencing a similar bug with chm files. They open correctly on double-click in the file browser.

Bug confirmed. I am also able to reproduce this error. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Gimp 2. Create a new file, then save it 3. Go to Places My Recent Documents, and select the .xcf Gimp file 3. The error message above will appear. ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-panel = gimp ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 232379] Re: cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents
I think this is a gnome bug and not a GIMP bug. The reason I say this is because of the error message Could not find a suitable application. So Gimp has not started at all yet, because gnome doesn't know what to do with the file. Please correct me if my understanding is incorrect. -- cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 232379] Re: cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents
I noticed that the MimeType of xcf files is correctly detected by nautilus, however, file detects application/octet-stream (which is a synonym of unknown) instead of image/x-xcf. GNOME use MimeTypes to identify files and GIMP registers the image/x-xcf MimeType in his desktop file in /usr/share/applications. ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low -- cannot open Gimp xcf files from recent documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232379 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
