Bug ID: 470454
Summary: Java executable opens with Kate through Dolphin
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: iodream...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I've recently downloaded a java game with the executable bit already set. If
you click the executable it provides Dolphin sees it as a "Manual page" and
tries to open it with Kate, which of course produces only garbage. The system
doesn't even ask if i want to open the file as an executable, like with
Appimages for example. It doesn't matter if the executable bit is set or not.
The file command in the terminal sees it as a
"ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked,
interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=b566cf063c546e8cd7ce4fe9c1ce81ddbb9c00f1, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0,
not stripped"
and the mime type is "application/x-executable; charset=binary"
I am not sure if i can attach the file as an example here but the example game
is from here:
https://mslivo.itch.io/setris
The game launches just fine through the terminal.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Extract the archive
2. Double click the Setris-1.2 executable
OBSERVED RESULT
File is opened through kate
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma treats it as an executable and asks me what to do
