Title:
Change default handler of XML files to gedit from Firefox
Status in desktop-file-utils package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
By default plain XML files are opened with Firefox. More often than
not this results in a error in Firefox about the XML file being
invalid. It would be more useful to open these files in gedit so that
you can view the content.
Only text/xml file types are affected by the proposed change.
