Description bugreports2005 2016-04-13 09:15:50 UTC

Description of problem:

*.lyx files are not being opened in lyx by default.

The right click Open With menu does not offer lyx either.

Neither does Open With/Other Application... allow to
configure lyx, only says "No applications found for ...".


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
lyx-2.1.3-4.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
Reproducible


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install lyx from EPEL for EL7
2. Obtain a lyx file or use the lyx from step 1 to create one
3. Double-click on the said lyx file in


Actual results:
The file is opened in Gedit.


Expected results:
The file is opened in LyX.


Additional info:

- File properties correctly detects file as application/x-lyx.
- lyx.desktop has MimeType=application/x-lyx;text/x-lyx;
- What lyx.desktop does NOT have is an %f on the Exec= line.

With Exec=lyx %f, LyX does show up in the Open With menu, as
well as as the recommended application in Open With/Other
Application.... The default appears to remain gedit, however.
