I forgot to mention that after uninstalling the exo package things work as expected in Gnome: #sudo rpm -e exo --nodeps #xdg-open /tmp/screenshot.png triggers #gvfs-open /tmp/screenshot.png which opens file using /usr/share/applications/gnome-eog.desktop as expected Problem is that obviously this will break the Xfce functionality on the other hand. Best regards Michal Ambroz *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 674321 *** |
Created attachment 496489 [details] screenshot.png Description of problem: There is some race condition for Gnome Desktop Environment triggered by installing package of exo file manager (part of Xfce desktop environment), which causes Gnome desktop environment to process MIME associations in a wrong way. #xdg-mime query filetype screenshot.png image/png #xdg-mime query default image/png gnome-eog.desktop So you would guess that eog will be executed to process a file, but instead the nautilus is executed and ends with attached error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gvfs-1.8.1-1.fc15.i686 exo-0.6.0-5.fc15.i686 nautilus-3.0.1-1.fc15.i686 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have installed Gnome and Xfce desktop environment 2. Run GNOME session (Please note I am using gnome and not Xfce) 3. Trigger mime action from commandline: #xdg-open /tmp/screenshot.png Actual results: #xdg-open /tmp/screenshot.png triggers #gvfs-open /tmp/screenshot.png which triggers #exo-open --launch FileManager /tmp/screenshot.png which triggers #nautilus /tmp/screenshot.png and ends with error message: Could not display "/tmp/screenshot.png". The location is not a folder. Expected results: In my opinion when having Gnome session the behaviour should not be affected by having installed any other desktop environment. These things should be independent. Running gnome - it should take gnome mime type settiongs, running Xfce it shuold take Xfce mime type settings. Additional info:
