It brought up the file in NeoVim in Ghostty What do you have set for "Terminal emulator" In System Settings - Default Applications?

I was trying from non-plasma environment before.. In non plasma, if konsole is not installed, it shows error. it doesn't use the $TERMINAL too Or, at least shouldn't it use `mimeapps.list` to detect terminal? i mean the `x-scheme-handler/terminal` (In reply to sd from comment #2) > I was trying from non-plasma environment before.. > In non plasma, if konsole is not installed, it shows error. it doesn't use > the $TERMINAL too In the initial report, you had said you were using CachyOS and KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.0 If this bug only appears in a non-Plasma environment, we need details about what that is, can you please provide: Distribution: Desktop environment: (In reply to TraceyC from comment #4) > (In reply to sd from comment #2) > > I was trying from non-plasma environment before.. > > In non plasma, if konsole is not installed, it shows error. it doesn't use > > the $TERMINAL too > > In the initial report, you had said you were using CachyOS and KDE Plasma > Version: 6.5.0 > If this bug only appears in a non-Plasma environment, we need details about > what that is, can you please provide: > > Distribution: > Desktop environment: I installed Plasma in a vm to test if it's happening in plasma too. i am actually using:- Distribution:- Cachy os Window Manger:- Hyprland From what you said, it sounds like this is working properly now in CachyOS in your VM If there is still a bug, please provide the environment the bug is still happening in.

Right click any file (eg. any shellscript) 2. select `open with` & select any terminal app (eg. neovim) OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin shows error saying: `Terminal konsole not found while trying to run /usr/share/applications/nvim.desktop` EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin will use `$TERMINAL` variable to open the file with the selected terminal program.
