Whether you click on a link in your browser or you try to open the URL from the command line with xdg-open vnd.sun.star.webdav://... you get a message saying that this protocol is unknown. What I expected was that LibreOffice would start and would open the document. A workaround is to create a Desktop file with the following informations: [Desktop Entry] Name=WebDav LibreOffice Exec=/usr/bin/libreoffice %u Type=Application Terminal=false Categories=System; MimeType=x-scheme-handler/vnd.sun.star.webdav; and then to copy it in /usr/share/applications Afterwards you have to run sudo update-desktop-database so that Ubuntu will take the new protocol into account. A more definitive solution would be to modify the libreoffice-base Desktop file that comes with libreoffice (also located in /usr/share/applications) to add the MimeType properties described above. Note: I have also filled a bug report in Ubuntu's launchpad, but the comment in the desktop file state that it is part of the LibreOffice project. As I'm not sure which project is able to fix this bug, I've open a bug report on both bugtrackers. Sorry for the mess!
