Hello!
Description: The file 'chromium.desktop' registers for MimeType "x-scheme-handler/ftp". Therefore Chromium tries to open every file which is available via FTP protocol. Additional info: * package version(s): 83.0.4103.116-3 * config and/or log files etc.: /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop * link to upstream bug report, if any: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/1414 Steps to reproduce: 1.) Install chromium 2.) Open a FTP connection with Nautilus 3.) Double click any file -> chromium always tries to open the file What should happen: The assigned application should open the files. For examples 'gedit' shall be used for 'txt' files, when assigend to 'text/plain'. Workaround: # pacman -Rns chromium The other webbrowsers like Epiphany or Firefox don't register themselves for 'x-scheme-handler/ftp' and cause no issues. Thanks PS: Furthermore Chromium is rather invasive. It also registers for png, jpeg and gif and so on. None of that is the job of a webbrowser. |
This task depends upon
It's upon the user to choose the application to open a certain MIME-Type with as he/she likes.
