This is a forwarded bug from Launchpad, please see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kile/+bug/430666

Kile doesn't offer to use xdg-open for viewing PDF files. This is annoying because I configured my system to use a certain PDF Viewer and Kile simply doesn't offer to respect that.

I expected it to at least offer to respect a freedekstoply configured application.

So in the end, I expect it to run xdg-open on the PDF file, which I will configure manually now.
