the bugfix version include the needed change has been uploaded to wily and vivid (waiting for review)
** Description changed: + * Impact + some urls are not correctly handled + + * Test case + $ xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." + + that should open a working dialog and not an error one + + * Regression potential + check that the desktop handling of urls is correct (using xdg-open or click on e.g in website handlers in about dialogs) + + --------------- + When clicking on a magnet link, transmission-remote-gtk always displays the error "invalid or corrupt torrent file". This seems to be caused by xdg-open slightly modifying the link: $ xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." results in $ transmission-remote-gtk "magnet:///?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." which causes the problem mentioned. I'm using transmission-remote-gtk 1.1.1-1 from vivid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1453174 Title: Opening of magnet links broken Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: * Impact some urls are not correctly handled * Test case $ xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:9BE2..." that should open a working dialog and not an error one * Regression potential check that the desktop handling of urls is correct (using xdg-open or click on e.g in website handlers in about dialogs) --------------- When clicking on a magnet link, transmission-remote-gtk always displays the error "invalid or corrupt torrent file".
