Description Till Maas 2014-01-22 08:30:43 UTC
Description of problem:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s06.html defines several field codes for the exec key. Onle the f and u fields are subsituted by xdg-open in the function search_desktop_file():
arguments_exec="`echo "$arguments" | sed -e 's*%[fFuU]*"'"$arg_one"'"*g'`"

/usr/share/applications/kde4/okular.desktop contains the following exec key:
Exec=okular %U %i -caption %c

Therefore if xdg-open is configured with xdg-mime to open PDF documents with okular, okular tries to open the file %i and uses %c in the UI without substituting both.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xdg-utils-1.1.0-0.18.20131005git.fc20

How reproducible:
always
