Seems to work ok for me. The way it's *supposed* to work, is the KDE sets ENV $ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS /usr/share/kde-settings/kde- profile/default/share:/usr/local/share:/usr/share (see /etc/kde/env/env.sh) and there is /usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share/applications/defaults.list /usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share/applications/mimeapps.list (the former generally used by gtk2 apps these days, the latter kde) So, long-story-short, not sure why firefox isn't using these items for you. ?? -- Rex -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
