Iceweasel can't open directories via a file manager, either (from
notifications, at least).
The issue is that xdg-open can't detect that a desktop environment is
running. It attemps to detect DEs with:
detectDE()
{
if [ x"$KDE_FULL_SESSION" = x"true" ]; then DE=kde;
elif [ x"$GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID" != x"" ]; then DE=gnome;
elif xprop -root _DT_SAVE_MODE | grep ' = \"xfce4\"$' >/dev/null
2>&1; then DE=xfce;
fi
}
xfce here uses the program exo-open from package exo-utils. It is
required by thunar.
running: `exo-open $HOME` will open thunar to your home dir.
Adding this line above 'fi' to detectDE() makes thunar work:
elif [ -x /usr/bin/exo-open ]; then DE=xfce;
