Hi Björn, Perhaps this is related to your desktop environment? I run MATE and encountered a (very frustrating issue) with my browser refusing to open my configured email program. I was able to track it back to the detectDE() function in /usr/bin/xdg-email (the same function exists in /usr/bin/xdg-open), which was failing to match MATE in the case statement. I was able to resolve the email problem by mapping MATE to DE=gnome. That is: > $ diff /usr/bin/xdg-email.ORIG /usr/bin/xdg-email > 424a425,427 >> MATE) >> DE=gnome; >> ;; I subsequently found this reported as bug #770333 [1]. Perhaps you have found another issue with the xdg-utils package? You can review the open bug reports here [2].
