Even if the apps don't have their magic mime crap together (which it looks like scribus does, but ubuntu packagers don't use it?) ubuntu should allow one to associate a file with an application EITHER by mime type or by extension. -- .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/6031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 6031] Re: .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click
My I add that this occurs with .txt files as well? I created a file and gave it the extension .txt in which I keep my WPA key. Initially upon double-click I got a prompt to "Display" / "Run" / "Cancel". Running a text file is still a bit of mystery to me (as a new linux user), but anyhow I made something so it would always display. Now when I double-click I get the same message as the OP: The Filename ".txt indicates that this file is of type "text document". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "plain text document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.' This message is very confusing. Text Document vs Plain Text Document? Opening from console is fine "gedit xxx.txt" also Open with... is fine. If I open the file, save it without an extension then add one it is fine. -- .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/6031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 6031] Re: .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click
I am still having similar problems, gutsy 1.3.3.9.dfsg-1ubuntu1 In nautilus I have the choice to set scribus as default for text files, but then obviously all text files will be associated to scribus which is pretty annoying. Actually my usr/share/mime/scribus.xml is empty but I have no idea if that could have changed through reassigning the default for text files a few times before I had look at it.

[Bug 6031] Re: .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click
I can confirm that this behaviour still exists in edgy and it is quite annoying for a user. When you open nautilus it looks like a file is associated with Scribus, it says that it is a scribus file. But once you click on it it immediately recognises it as a plain text file and the open on double click action won't work. Will this be fixed for feisty? -- .sla files (Scribus) can't open with a double click https://launchpad.net/bugs/6031 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The windows version is 1.3.x and the Kubuntu version is 1.2x. Scribus 1.2.x cannot open 1.3x files and 'back saving' them to 1.2.x from 1.3.x is not feasible with the new file format.

I created a document in the Windows version of Scribus. I tried to open it in Kubuntu's package of Scribus and it tells me that the SLA file is in the wrong format. It will open in Kate just fine, and it LOOKS like valid XML from what I can tell. Any ideas? Should I download it from Scribus' home page and not use the Kubuntu package?
