[Bug 1185043] New: url_handler.sh packaged with urlview does not open url in Firefox
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1185043 Bug ID: 1185043 Summary: url_handler.sh packaged with urlview does not open url in Firefox Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other Assignee: screening-team-bugs@suse.de Reporter: dan@danrees.me QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 848567 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=848567&action=edit Debian alternative url_handler.sh Urlview 0.9 has been installed and linked with mutt in muttrc. Mutt is capable of displaying urlview which successfully launches url_handler.sh located at /usr/bin/url_handler.sh with the selected url as the argument. url_handler.sh fails to launch firefox and there is no further output on the terminal. The behaviour is replicated by manually launching url_handler.sh from gnome-terminal. Manual inspection of url_handler.sh confirms that firefox is listed first in the variable 'x11browser' per the default installation. In contrast the default url_handler.sh script packaged with Debian and extracted from source works as fine when manually executed or included in a new '.urlview'. This script is attached for comparison. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The Debian url_handler script simply calls Firefox with the URL as a parameter, so it does not encounter the problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
