Title:
default folder/file handler is improperly set from 'open with other
application' menu
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
By default there is no inode/directory= in
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
After a r. click -> "open with other application" and picking an app the line is created with that app as first listed, which is proper behavior.
What's not proper is that app becomes the default for opening 'Places and anything accessed thru Places', though not for dir.'s on the desktop.
Ex. this line will open Places and therein with vlc
inode/directory=vlc.desktop;
Proper behaviour is restored when opening a folder thru the r. click
-> "open with other application" and picking "Open folder" which
creates ( or simply editing it so
inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;vlc.desktop;
Any add. 'open with's , add the .desktop to front of line and that
app becomes the default, ect.
Previously the first listed on inode/directory= was not the default -
it remained nautilus-folder-handler whether listed or not
