Hi,

amberol sets the inode/directory file in its desktop file.
This is wrong as it causes amberol to handle as app for opening files.
Should probably fixed / discussed upstream.

best,

I don't think this is necessarily a bug that needs to be fixed.
Similarly, I think your recent patch for baobab isn't needed and
interferes with someone who wants to use baobab to scan a particular
directory by right clicking on the directory in their file manager and
choosing Open with… Disk Usage Analyzer.

Debian's gnome-session-common package provides
/usr/share/applications/gnome-mimeapps.list which is currently
provided by
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-session/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/gnome-mimeapps.list
although there was a draft merge request upstream to have GNOME
provide that file itself).

For desktops that set their XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to include GNOME, that
file is used to provide default apps for different mimetypes. (The
Ubuntu default desktop sets XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=ubuntu:GNOME so
gnome-mimeapps.list is currently used although I guess I should
provide a ubuntu-mimeapps.list to more clearly show where Ubuntu
diverges from the Debian GNOME set.)

What desktop/window manager do you use? I think you don't use GNOME
which is why the behavior isn't working for you. I think you should
consider updating the Debian package for your desktop to include a
reasonable ${desktop}-mimeapps.list . Notably, you can include
alternatives separated by semicolons in case there isn't necessarily a
single best app for a particular mimetype.

You're right, this is a layer-8 issue :/ I use sway, and haven't defined nautilus as handler for inode/directory mimetypes.
Sorry for the noise. I will revert the baobab patch accordingly.

best,

werdahias
