** Description changed:

- After gvfs replaced gconf for URL handlers, xchat's handling broke. I
- have attached a replacement xchat.desktop file that fixes this.
+ [Impact]
+ Several releases ago, Ubuntu switched from gconf to gvfs for mime-type 
handling. The xchat package was never updated to reflect this change, 
introducing a long-standing bug wgere clicking a URL in a browser does not work 
anymore.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Go to an irc:// URL in your browser: irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-motu
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ None detectable
