Package: gvfs-bin,xdg-utils
Version: 1.12.3-1+b1
Severity: important

Hi,

running gnome3, double-click on a pdf in nautilus opens the pdf in
evince, which is reasonable.

using xdg-open, which is used by several programs to open files,
opens the file in a *file*manager* (nautilus). Which means it shows
the containing folder, not very useful.

I traced xdg-open, and it calls gvfs-open, which in turn uses
some mime applications.

I also checked with xdg-mime types, and they are set correctly:

$ xdg-mime query filetype foo.pdf
application/pdf
$ xdg-mime query default application/pdf
evince.desktop
$

Hmm, doesn't look bad, so why on earth does it open a file manager??


I don't know if this is xdg-open of gvfs-open faults, but it is
a very disturbing problem. 

Actually the whole MIME settings is a big mess in Debian.

No, the hardware is completely broken .. you don't want to see a photo
of it ;-)


Bug closed, not reproducible anymore.

THROCKING (participial vb.)
The action of continually pushing down the lever on a pop-up toaster
in the hope that you will thereby get it to understand that you want
it to toast something. Also: a style of drum-playing favoured by Nigel
Olsson of the Elton John Band, reminiscent of the sound of someone
slapping a frankfurter against a bucket. An excellent example of this
is to be heard on 'Someone Save My Life Tonight' from the album
Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy.
