FYI, I made this work in Linux Mint 18 KDE by replacing the following
line in /usr/bin/xdg-mime
1000 # KTRADER=`which ktraderclient${KDE_SESSION_VERSION} 2>
/dev/null`
1001 KTRADER=`which ktraderclient 2> /dev/null`
It likely has to do with Plasma 5 and some greps.
$ ktraderclient5 -v
ktraderclient 5.6.5
$ ktraderclient -v
Qt: 4.8.7
KDE Development Platform: 4.14.16
KTraderClient: 0.0
Chromimum was able to set itself default after the change, and wont
complain any more.
I see open Bug ref. with xdg-utils:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98562 (hopefully they'll
fix this for good some time)
