Description of problem: sealert gives you the opportunity to view the detailed description that will be submitted with the bug report. But this doesn't work - Firefox doesn't understand the file URL passed to it, maybe because it contains ':' characters. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): setroubleshoot-3.0.41-1.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Generate a selinux alert 2. Click Troubleshoot 3. Click Report bug 4. Double click on "click here to view/edit" (the description line) Actual results: Firefox opens a new window with 3 tabs, none of which resolve to anything sensible. It is clear to me that for some reason, the filename has been interpreted as 3 separate tabs to load, instead of one single filename. Expected results: Firefox should open the file /tmp/abrt-tmp-2012-01-01-10:13:04-3742/description Additional info: firefox-9.0.1-1.fc16.x86_64 It does not matter whether firefox is already running or not.
reassigning to libreport, which contains the actual binary that does this. libreport-2.0.8-3.fc16.x86_64
Workaround (for KDE users at least): quit and re-run as sealert -S This will make xdg-open notice that it's running in KDE, so it will use kde-open instead of firefox to open the file.
Seems more like a problem in xdg-open or firefox. -> reassigning to xdg-open.
xdg-open has been broken in Fedora for *months* because it sets IFS=: to split colon-separated values. This would be fine if xdg-open protected the URL argument from field splitting by wrapping $1 in double quotes, but it doesn't. Consequently, http://example.com gets split into "http" and "//example.com". The fix is trivial: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/commit/?id=d1cb061c85388cb9e87a3ea902061d7b94726971 See also https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45859 Please apply this patch soon. Any application that uses xdg-open cannot open URLs now (e.g., LibreOffice).
ok, (though that patch only applies if you're using a "generic" environment, and not one that provides a better tool, like kde, gnome, etc...)
