Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: amsn
The first time in aMSN you must chose which software aMSN will call upon
when somebody wants to open a file, open a link to a web page etc. This
shouldn't be the case so I have created a little patch (nothing fancy,
trust me) which maked aMSN use xdg-open per default.
xdg-open is a part of xdg-utils (at least in Ubuntu 7.10) and get's
installed in all official Ubuntu distros form the beginning.
I didn't want to change the default for playing sounds (play) because I
don't know if xdg-open would handle it that good. One other option is to
change the depedency of aMSN to include sox, that's out of my reach.
I hope this will be accepted, having to change something the first time you use
it to get it working is not acceptable in my world. Simple fixes are often the
best ;).
Please let me know what you think :)
