Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
Downloading the win32 version of Firefox and saving this to the Desktop should mean that the file can be automatically loaded through the use of 'binfmt_misc' support with Wine. The file is started (after having been given execute permissions by hand) from the command line: ./Firefox\ Setup\ 2.0.0.2.exe then the install loads find. If I attempt to open this from the Desktop using the mouse and a double click, then the message I get is: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file. http://www.paul.sladen.org/ubuntu/bugs/no-suitable-application.png Ideally Nautilus should allow the executable to be run using the normal kernel-based binfmt_misc support. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- binfmt_misc (win32) program leads to "No application suitable for automatic installation" https://launchpad.net/bugs/90194 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
