Version: 4.2.92 (KDE 4.2.92 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090617)) (using 4.2.92 (KDE 4.2.92 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090617)), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-13-generic When running konqueror in a remote session (using ssh -X) trying to report a bug will open some other browser instead of opening a new konq window. For instance, right now I am typing this in to something called "GNOME Web Browser". I am getting some output when clicking the "Launch Bug Report Wizard" button: kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/lib/libkdeinit4_xdg-open.so Could not open library /usr/bin/xdg-open: Cannot load library /usr/lib/libkdeinit4_xdg-open.so: (/usr/lib/libkdeinit4_xdg-open.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
You have "GNOME Web Browser" as a defaut browser: xdg-open - opens a file or URL in the user's preferred application
It works fine in a normal (local) session. It only fails in remote session. KDE4 System Settings, for Web Browser (Open http or https URLS) shows: "In an application based on the contents of the url" In Konqueror, "File Associations" setting for text/html lists: Konqueror, Opera, AbiWord, Thunderbird, Firefox, Epiphany, ... Strangely... From local konsole... $ xdg-mime query default text/html epiphany.desktop $ xdg-open http://google.com (opens in konqueror) And clicking on the "Launch Bug Report Wizard" button in the local session will open up in konqueror also. Nothing in _any_ .../share/applications/defaults.list that I can find anywhere on the system lists epiphany for anything (not even for text/html). From remote session (logged in with ssh -X) $ xdg-mime query default text/html firefox.desktop $ xdg-open http://google.com (opens in epiphany running on remote system)
