Public bug reported:

When the application is installed there is no file association for
.blend files. ie, when i double click on a .blend file, it runs apturl
(i think) and tries to locate a program. This also fails to locate
blender in the software centre.

Corrected by adding application/x-blender=blender.desktop to
/usr/share/applications/defaults.list however the application still does
not appear in the list of available applications in right click nautilus
menu unless it is already the default application.
