New submission from Matthias Klose <d...@debian.org>:
[forwarded from https://bugs.debian.org/969776] """ rust-webbrowser tries to open URLs via "gvfs-open $URL" and "gnome-open $URL". Both are obsolete; the replacement is "gio open $URL", using the gio(1) tool from the libglib2.0-bin package. The gvfs-open tool was superseded by gio(1) in 2015, and removed from upstream GNOME in 2018. The version in Debian is currently a Debian-specific patch, which we would like to remove before Debian 11. The gnome-open tool was superseded by gvfs-open in 2008, ceased to be part of GNOME releases after about 2011, most recently appeared in a Debian stable release as part of Debian 9, and was finally removed from Debian in 2019. """ The current list of browser could need some cleanup, e.g.: - remove "The Netscape and old Mozilla browsers" - remove grail? - remove gvfs-open - gnome-open? - can't find galeon anymore, but epiphany ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 386526 nosy: doko priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: webbrowser to support "gio open <URL>" versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43137> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
