Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
When selecting a file of some type or a directory, the Open With menu
shows a list of apps and the option to Open Other Applications that
gives a dialog listing all the apps (some several times) with a checkbox
to 'Remember this application' -- so far as I can tell, it never
remembers; I have been using VLC to open video files for as long as I
can remember, and VLC still is not in the list, and I have never
selected gmplayer to open video files, yet it is in that list. Also, in
opening a directory I frequently use VLC to open DVD image directories,
yet here again VLC has never migrated into that select box.
Can the select list be edited or reset to reflect the choices I actually
use?
I am currently using Ubuntu 10.10, but so far as I recall this behaviour
has been in Nautilus since the beginning.
