Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xdg-utils
This bug definitely affects the Lubuntu distribution, but may also affect the vanilla Ubuntu distribution. It manifests itself as an inability to click downloaded files in Chromium or Google Chrome. This is due to a bug with xdg-open, which can be tested by running the following in a terminal: ~$ xdg-open /tmp Warning: unknown mime-type for "/tmp" -- using "application/octet-stream" Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "application/octet-stream" It was fixed upstream in the following bug report: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23280 >From what I can tell this has not made it downstream yet, as the bug persists in Lucid, using the latest package xdg-utils 1.0.2-6.1ubuntu3 Hopefully this upstream fix can be applied, or the packages synced, which should resolve the issue. ** Affects: xdg-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- xdg-open fix needs applying from upstream https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
