https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442413 --- Comment #2 from 61kyl...@anonaddy.me --- Ops, the blockquote got messed up. >The root of the problem is: KDE does not initialize the XDG file associations >file ~/.config/mimeapps.list with its defaults.

You can do that by changing file association order to something >different than the default applying it and then turning the ordering back to >Okular-first in System Settings -> File Associations. > >It is an oddity left from KDE4 days. It allows people to try out KDE without >ruining GTK based desktop file associations but causes problems like this when >GTK apps are used under KDE desktop. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
