Description Sebastien Bacher 2007-02-13 20:10:27 UTC 
With control-center 2.17.91 gnome-default-applications-properties lists no application, that's because it's looking at the wrong directory.

from the code

"    filename = g_build_filename (DATADIR,
				 "gnome-default-applications",
				 "gnome-default-applications.xml",
				 NULL);
"

the build has " -DDATADIR="\"/usr/share\""" and the file is installed to "/usr/share/control-center/gnome-default-applications/gnome-default-applications.xml"

        * Makefile.am:
        * gnome-da-capplet.c: (show_dialog):
        * gnome-da-xml.c: (gnome_da_xml_load_list): really fix DATADIR and
        make directory definitions more consistent with other capplets.
        Closes bug #407597.
