Bug ID: 427469
Summary: mimeapps.list is not respected when called by xdg-open
Product: frameworks-kservice
Version: 5.74.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

~/.config/mimeapps.list
SUMMARY
If I open a .7z archive in an app like Chromium, it will consult xdg-open,
which will check that the environment is KDE, which will result it in taking a
kde-open5 path, which will use ktraderclient5, which will ignore entries that
have a corresponding .desktop entry with NotShowIn=KDE if current environment
is KDE;
I think the correct behavior here would be mimeapps.list overriding the
.desktop NotShowIn rule.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set file-roller to open 7z(application/x-7z-compressed) files in
mimeapps.list
2. Set NotShowIn=KDE; in file-roller's .desktop
entry(/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.FileRoller.desktop), which is already
the default on Arch
3. Test what .7z is going to be opened with, either via Chromium, or this handy
shell command:
% XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP="KDE" /usr/bin/ktraderclient5 --mimetype
application/x-7z-compressed | grep EntryPath | head -n1
DesktopEntryPath : '/usr/share/applications/kindlecomicconverter.desktop'
% XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP="notKDE" /usr/bin/ktraderclient5 --mimetype
application/x-7z-compressed | grep EntryPath | head -n1
DesktopEntryPath : '/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.FileRoller.desktop'
OBSERVED RESULT
Downloaded .7z archives opened via Chromium are opened by an app that's not the
system default
EXPECTED RESULT
Downloaded .7z archives opened via Chromium are opened in file-roller, which is
defined as the default app in mimeapps.list
