Public bug reported: If you remove the 'application/x-ms-dos-executable' from the file-roller.desktop file Mimetype entry suddenly wine starts opening exes again. There is no application/x-ms-dos-executable association in /usr/share/applications/defaults.list (for file-roller or another program)
Also, opening 'execs' on fileroller is a very arcane usercase that almost never comes up and is better handled by 'open with'. While opening with wine is most frequent. What i find strange is why it's not trying all binftms associations before trying the mimetype associations. Related bug (binfmt mono-runtime detection script is getting confused about non-C# execs); but this bug happens even with mono-runtime not installed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binfmt-support/+bug/1176948 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: file-roller 3.6.3-1ubuntu4 [modified: usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop] ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.30-generic 3.8.8 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-19-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon May 6 16:18:30 2013 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-04-22 (14 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130421) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: file-roller UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: file-roller (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug raring -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to file-roller in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1176967 Title: file-roller is opening exec even with wine installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/1176967/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
