Description Christoph Wickert 2011-10-23 21:03:54 UTC
Description of problem:
After installation of the Xfce spin, there is no default file manager configured in exo-preferred-applications - even though Thunar is the only one that is installed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
exo-0.6.2-2.fc16

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install Xfce
2. log in
3. click on a folder, e.g. from the directory menu or the desktop
  
Actual results:
A dialog to select the preferred file manager shows up and there is only one file manager to choose (Thunar)

Expected results:
Thunar should show up directly.

Additional info:
"FileManager=Thunar" is missing from /etc/xdg/xfce4/helpers.rc

Comment 1 Christoph Wickert 2011-10-23 21:05:24 UTC
I already added a workaround for this on the livecd in F15, but the proper fix is to do it in the package because it affects installed systems, too.
