Bug ID: 403499
Summary: Opening URLs doesn't respect mimeapps.list and is
buggy
Product: xdg-desktop-portal-kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
KDE ignores mimeapps.list for launching URLs and can't get https://google.com
opened by default.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. ~/.config/mimeapps.list should contain
[Added Associations]
text/html=firefox.desktop;
2. Try opening https://google.com by clicking on it somewhere (I used Telegram)
3. Error: 'A folder named /home/c0rn3j/.cache/kioexec/krun/8344_0/ already
exists.'
2. Try opening https://github.com/Lyrics/lyrics.github.io/issues/15 by clicking
on it somewhere
3. It tries to open in Calibre. Why?
There's no way to make KDE just use the XDG defaults as far as I am aware, it
just tries to open it in whatever app it finds suitable, and can't even open
https://google.com

OBSERVED RESULT
Be able to open https://google.com with default settings
Have KDE respect mimeapps.list for default browser by default, at the very
least have it as an option
EXPECTED RESULT
Can't open https://google.com - kio error
Can't get any URL to open in Firefox. It's either an error or Calibre.
