From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Description of problem: If I try to run gnome-open on an https location, it fails: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-vfs2-2.7.92-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Type gnome-open https://bugzilla.redhat.com Actual Results: Error showing url: There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location. Expected Results: Mozilla should open https://bugzilla.redhat.com Additional info: The only web browser installed is mozilla-1.7.2-0.3.0
And same thing for mailto: links, with evolution-1.5.94.1-1 as only mailer installed.
After re-setting my prefered mailer from "evolution-1.6 %s" (which was the mistaken default) to "evolution %s", I can open mailto: links. And I manager to work-around the https: bug by doing: ln -s /usr/bin/mozilla /usr/bin/epiphany It seems that epiphany is configured as the default handler for https locations, even though I've never installed it...
Things that are broken now in gconf://desktop/gnome/url-handlers : about/command (stuck as epiphany) https/command (stuck as epiphany) mailto/command (stuck as evolution-1.6) unknown/unknown (stuck as epiphany) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 131670 ***
