Hello there, I can confirm that this happens, and I have found a way to get around it. It seems firefox is looking for the correct program, but is looking in the wrong place. So, what I had to do, is when firefox brings up the download box, just choose a different program. In this case I figured the best one would probably be gdebi-gtk, which is gdebi with a gui. All you need to do is click install packages. By the way, if you, like me, had no idea where to find the program it is in /usr/bin /gdebi-gtk.

Hello there, I can confirm that this happens, and I have found a way to get around it. It seems firefox is looking for the correct program, but is looking in the wrong place. So, what I had to do, is when firefox brings up the download box, just choose a different program. In this case I figured the best one would probably be gdebi-gtk, which is gdebi with a gui. All you need to do is click install packages. By the way, if you, like me, had no idea where to find the program it is in /usr/bin /gdebi-gtk.

Are you able to use gdebi on its own? I also highly doubt the gedit problem isnt related to firefox at all, atleast you dont explain or give errors. -- .deb association with gdebi doesn't work in firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280623 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 280623] Re: .deb association with gdebi doesn't work in firefox
Sorry, spoke too soon : I cannot reproduce it with http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pidgin/pidgin_2.5.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb where the server sends the wrong mime type (text/plain) But I can reproduce it with http://pidgin- facebookchat.googlecode.com/files/pidgin-facebookchat-1.47.deb where the server sends the mime type application/x-archive application/x-debian- package I think part of the problem comes from the fact that firefox is very bad at handling external applications. It first uses it's own hardcoded database of extensions->mimetype, then uses mimeTypes.rdf, then at last uses the system's mime associations. I don't understand why it doesn't simply uses the system's extensions and mime associations... -- .deb association with gdebi doesn't work in firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280623 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
