Package: libgnome2-0
Version: 2.30.0-1
Severity: normal


The gnome-open man page shows that gnome-open can be used to start applications 
by passing the name of their .desktop file, but this doesn't work:

sascha.silbe@twin:~$ gnome-open /usr/share/applications/conkeror.desktop
Error showing url: No application is registered as handling this file
sascha.silbe@twin:~$

Excerpt from man page:

>       Possible useless use of gnome-open
>              gnome-open /usr/share/applications/gedit.desktop


This feature would have been useful to me as it avoids having to interpret the 
Exec key of the .desktop file (unquoting, parameter expansion, etc.).
