One thing to check is whether it's all such links, or just from one website. If a website is providing links with the wrong MIME type headers, that's going to confuse things, no end. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.16.7-100.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 2 21:45:56 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.

So should the proper entry be 'torrent' or 'bittorrent'? x-scheme-handler/magnet=deluge.desktop; x-scheme-handler/torrent=deluge.desktop; x-scheme-handler/bittorrent=deluge.desktop; Neither. That would be for if you have torrent:// links. The proper entry would be: application/x-bittorrent=deluge.desktop; But that shouldn't be necessary since it's already associated. Can I just restart deluge or do I have to restart gnome? Neither. Deluge doesn't care and Gnome should auto-detect the change. However, it seems the problem is with Chrome. I know with Firefox you can set whether to just save or else open an application with a downloaded file, but I don't know where that would be set with Chrome. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/HVWR6KQLNH46HJZVN24EEHXI35G3OUC4/
