What can we do about it, though? I think the relevant module is
"webbrowser". It has rather complicated logic and is therefore rather hard
to convince to run a command through "sage-native-execute". If I place in
sage/bin a script
$ cat xdg-open
#!/bin/sh
exec sage-native-execute /usr/bin/xdg-open "$@"
then
sage: import webbrowser
sage: webbrowser.open("http://google.com";)
True
works.
However, "sage -notebook=ipython" now doesn't produce an error, but
doesn't open a browser window either! If I point my browser at the relevant
URL (http://localhost:8888/, which is displayed but not hugely prominently)
things work as expected.
So it seems ipython does use "webbrowser" but does so in a more convoluted
way that just webbrowser.open(...). Apparently a way that prevents the
simple wrapping script approach from working.
