Public bug reported:
I use fluxbox for my window manager and Dolphin (from KDE) for my file
manager. Dolphin and Nautilus are set to open PDFs with Okular. But xdg-
open doesn't find this association, so it falls back to run-mailcap,
which launches Evince.
The reason for this seems to be that
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list has the line
application/pdf=kde4-okularApplication_pdf.desktop;evince.desktop
but the actual desktop file is at
/usr/share/applications/kde4/okularApplication_pdf.desktop
Solution:
xdg-open should try replacing dashes ('-') in file names with slashes
('/').
