I cannot reproduce this issue, at all. What I do: * mkdir -p ~/xdgdata/applications/ * cp /usr/share/applications/arora.desktop ~/xdgdata/applications/ * vim ~/xdgdata/applications/arora.desktop * change the Exec to konqueror * export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/xdgdata/:$XDG_DATA_DIRS * kbuildsycoca4 .... to ensure the cache is up-to-date * kfmclient openURL 'http://kubuntu.org' || v opens Konqueror! not Arora.
Please provide more information on how you archive the wrong behaviour? ** Changed in: kde4libs (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- settings in $HOME/.kde/config/kdeglobals doesn't respect XDG_DATA_DIRS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379053 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kde4libs in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
