Patch to fix this. Custom toggles are set active in case custom entries are set for both Web Browser and Mailer (1.82 KB, patch)
2003-11-14 05:09 UTC, Nicel KM 		none Details | Review

Description Nicel KM 2003-11-14 05:07:07 UTC 
If the custom entries are set for Web Browser/Mailer,
gnome-default-application-properties displays the toggle buttons in
inconsistent state for both select and custom toggles, leaving the entries
inactive.

Version:
gnome-default-applications-properties 2.5.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to reproduce:
1. invoke gnome-default-applications-properties
2. set the value for Web Browser to any custome value, say epiphany %s
3. Close the dialog
4. invoke gnome-default-application-properties again
5. Web Browser page is displayed with both the select and custom toggles in
 inconsistent mode and entry boxes inactive

Same is the case with Mailer page if custom mailer is set. Even if the
custom valus are set through some other application and Preferred
applications dialog is brought up, bug is observed.

Comment 2 Nicel KM 2003-11-14 05:12:17 UTC 
Changes made to gnome-default-applications-properties.c in
read_browser() and read_mailer().
Comment 3 Marcin Krzyzanowski 2003-11-15 12:36:03 UTC 
isn't it the same problem like #121944 ?
Comment 4 Nicel KM 2003-11-17 05:23:26 UTC 
I guess the problem seems to be similar, though #121944 talks about 
value being set to default while opened again. What I could observe 
was that the options are made inconsistent and entries disabled.
