Description derf 2011-06-06 02:59:19 UTC
Revision 1.5 of www-client/seamonkey/files/icon/seamonkey.desktop added a MimeType field, which makes this desktop file get used to open HTML files, http, and https links, but it is missing a %U in the Exec field, so the browser simply opens with a blank page, instead of the desired link.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =www-client/seamonkey-2.0.14
2. Maybe set it to the default browser in Gnome's System/Preferences/Preferred Applications/Internet/Web Browser? (it's the only browser I have installed)
3. Ctrl-click a link in gnome-terminal
Actual Results:  
A new browser window opens with a blank page, not the desired link.

Expected Results:  
A new browser window should open and load the desired link.

Simply replacing the line

Exec=seamonkey

with

Exec=seamonkey %U

fixes the problem for me.
