"me too". Firefox tries to open zip files in gedit. In Nautilus they are correctly associated to file-roller.
Removing this line seemed to fix the issue: application/octet-stream=gedit.desktop;inkscape.desktop; I believe the bug is NOT in Firefox, but in whatever adds the line to the mimeapps.list. It should be in sync with the file associations used by Nautilus. I don't know enough details of this mechanism to suggest the correct fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/918019 Title: Firefox does not use default application to open binary files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/918019/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
