GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 447415
Can't launch executables in gnome-commander
Last modified: 2007-10-11 21:45:31 UTC
Please describe the problem: Gnome-commander does not handle the MIME type 'application/x-executable' right. Steps to reproduce: I compiled the gnome-commander from sources. Immediately I discovered that I can't launch applications within the gnome-commander. When I try doing that the message appears 'No default application found for the mime-type application/x-executable. Open the "File types and programs" page in the Control Center to add one.' Installation via apt-get has the same result. Actual results: Expected results: By default, any file manager must handle that MIME type correct. Does this happen every time? yes Other information: I have Gnome and KDE installed side-by-side. OS Kubuntu Feisty 7.04 - amd64 version. CPU AMD64 3200+ 1Gb of RAM.
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.
