Title:
sudo xdg-open doesn't work
Status in “xdg-utils” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xdg-utils
Hi,
Try this:
sudo xdg-open /usr/share/
It failed with:
Warning: unknown mime-type for "/usr/share" -- using
"application/octet-stream"
Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "application/octet-stream"
gksu does not work either.
Cheers
