Thank you for your bug report. The behaviour was fixed/changed in xchat
2.8 in feisty and the patch 09_browser.dpatch has been dropped.
Current code:
/* universal desktop URL opener (from xdg-utils). Supports
gnome,kde,xfce4. */
if (try_browser ("xdg-open", NULL, url))
return;
/* try to detect GNOME */
if (g_getenv ("GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID"))
{
if (try_browser ("gnome-open", NULL, url)) /* Gnome 2.4+ has
this */
return;
}
/* try to detect KDE */
if (g_getenv ("KDE_FULL_SESSION"))
{
if (try_browser ("kfmclient", "exec", url))
return;
}
/* everything failed, what now? just try firefox */
if (try_browser ("firefox", NULL, url))
return;
/* fresh out of ideas... */
try_browser ("mozilla", NULL, url);
** Changed in: xchat (Ubuntu)
Status: Unconfirmed => Fix Released
