Scott, you made my day! Your email helped me to solve the issue. Thanks a lot.
dolphin was set as my default file browser:
2# xdg-mime query default inode/directory
dolphin.desktop
I followed your next advice to disable nautilus in /usr/share/dbus-1/services
mv org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service
org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service.bak
After doing that iceweasel used nemo ;-) But not dolphin.
Therefore I edited /usr/share/applications/defaults.list. It listed a whole
bunch of apps in inode/directory incl. nemo
I removed them all except for
inode/directory=kde4-dolphin.desktop
And that was it! iceweasel now uses dolphin to open folders.
Thanks a lot
Matthias
PS
As soon as I enable "org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service" again, iceweasel
switches back to nautilus. Looks like this is leading the mime type
assignments. I would prefer default.list to lead that. Is that just an
iceweasel/firefox thing or intentional for the whole system?
