Description of problem: arora isn't listed as an option in the gnome preferred application list for browsers. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): arora-0.6-2.fc11.ppc How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo yum install arora 2. System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications 3. Notice that arora isn't in the select box
Hi, Arora is not in "Preferred Applications" list but you can use "Custom" option and set "Command" to "arora %s". I'll try to ping someone from Gnome folks what they thing about it and how to do it properly.
Got a patch? The file to modify is: capplets/default-applications/gnome-default-applications.xml.in in the control-center sources. And let us know in which versions you'd want that patch (F-11 and rawhide alright?)
Created attachment 346637 [details] Proposed patch Hi Bastien, thanks for hint. F11 and devel is OK for me as the report is for rawhide. I'm not sure about your policies and if it is possible to have it in previous releases either. Arora is also available for F9/F10.
control-center-2.26.0-9.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/control-center-2.26.0-9.fc11
Done for F11 and devel. Don't think it's worth doing for F10 or earlier given that we had exactly one report of this bug...
I removed the patch in devel. Arora should ship its own XML file instead. See the details at: http://live.gnome.org/ControlCenter/AddingDefaultApplications
I'm not sure about bundling Gnome specific stuff to cross desktop browser - same reason why I'm not building Arora against kdelibs even upstream suggest it (for better open/save dialogs). Lot of people uses Arora in other DEs. So I think g-c-c module patch is more suitable for this bug.
A couple of lines in the configure.in and Makefile.am, to make sure the file gets dropped in the right place, that's all. You could even hardcode the path as you know the control-center will look in /usr/share/gnome-control-center/default-apps/ on Fedora systems. Then it's just a matter of getting the file itself upstream, so it can get translated. I won't be re-adding the patch, given that dropping one file into a directory doesn't account for a dependency at all...
For some people installing Gnome specific file somewhere in their filesystem could be same like red flag for bull ;-) I can hardcode it to SPEC file as Arora is using QMake but I'll ask upstream for their opinion. No translations are needed.
