That is fine, though I'll apply the patch. There does appear to
be another bug, or my misunderstanding. That is, even
without the link,
[[file:/home/joe/sample.pdf]]

opens the pdf inside emacs rather than in a standalone pdf reader.
Previously
that wasn't the case (if memory serves). Using
[[file:/home/joe/sample.pdf::1]]
for the link opens it in a standalone reader.
Probably because you have an explicit setting for the latter in
org-file-apps (as Jan suggested) but not for the former. There are many
twisty passages here, but I think that in the end emacs looks at your
mailcap: if it finds no match there then it opens it itself.
I have
application/pdf; xpdf -q %s
in my ~/.mailcap and indeed the link opens in xpdf.
My /etc/mailcap defines an appropriate application for pdfs.
The problem is that I replaced the existing entry
for pdf in org-file-apps, so that without the page tag there is no match.
Doing
(setq org-file-apps '((auto-mode . emacs)
("\\.mm\\'" . default)
("\\.x?html?\\'" . default)
("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" . "evince \"%s\" -p %1")
("\\.pdf\\'" . default) ;; this was the original
))
allows links to pdf's without the page tag to open in an external
application.
