file-roller doesn't remember open-with application
Last modified: 2008-08-31 07:50:38 UTC
Please describe the problem: If I open a file in a archive with "open with --> application" file-roller does not remember the application. e.g. If I choose mousepad to open a .txt file, next time file-roller uses gedit to open a .txt file. Steps to reproduce: 1. open a archive which contains a .txt file 2. open the .txt file with "open with --> Mousepad" 3. close Mousepad 4. double-klick the .txt file Actual results: file-roller opens the .txt file with gedit Expected results: file-roller uses Mousepad to open the .txt file Does this happen every time? yes Other information: I am not using the complete Gnome Desktop. My WM is Openbox and Filemanager Thunar. But the problem still exists if I install the complete Gnome-Desktop. Seems it's a known problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/132901
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
