Title:
xdg-email fails to execute thunderbird.desktop properly
Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Kubuntu users who use thunderbird as their default mailer will not be
able to open mailto: links in html pages. This appears to be a KDE-
specific bug from the notes upstream.
This issue has been fixed upstream, but the fixes are not yet in:
ii xdg-utils 1.1.3-4.1ubuntu3~22.04.1 all desktop
integration utilities from freedesktop.org
The upstream commit is:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/-/issues/187
I verified that the changes in the /usr/bin/xdg-email script listed
above address the issue.
After applying the code changes, chrome is now able to open mailto
links to launch thunderbird.
