gnome 2.12.3, epiphany 1.8.4.1 Nautilus opens bz2 with Archive Manager (the only app). Epiphany open gz/tgz files, but not bz2: "You have no application able to open "linux-2.6.2.tar.bz2". You can download it instead." Headers from the server (say kernel.org): for gz: Content-Type: application/x-gzip for bz2: Content-Type: application/x-bzip2 Seems fine to me. Also found suggestion in forums to check /usr/share/epiphany/mime-types-permissions.xml. There are 2 lines there: <mime-type type="application/x-bzip"/> <mime-type type="application/x-bzip-compressed-tar"/> Unfortunatelly adding <mime-type type="application/x-bzip2"/> makes no sence. How can I make Epiphany open bz2 directly instead of downloading it before?
The mimetypes are correct. This works for me in 2.14, so I consider this 'fixed'.
I installed unmasked Gnome 2.14 / Epiphany 2.14.0 (compiled against Firefox 1.0.8). It still behaves the same way about bz2 files mentioned above. For fun Firefox 1.0.8 itself picks Gnome/Nautilus settings and opens bz2 in Archive Manager :)
yeah well, i still can't reproduce.. what version of shared-mime-info do you have installed ?
It was shared-mime-info 0.16. Also tried with 0.17-r2. Also tried on clean epiphany profile on test user. No luck.
Assuming you build epiphany against firefox, build it against mozilla, see if that makes a difference (or the other way around). Can anyone reading this reproduce it ?
(In reply to comment #5) > Assuming you build epiphany against firefox, build it against mozilla, see if > that makes a difference (or the other way around). Rebuilt against mozilla. Still no luck. (And mozilla itself opens the link in Archive Manager by default :) I must be doomed. BTW I have Ub*u unstable here, and epiphany 2.14.x opens bz2 in Archive Manager in it. So I'm not that completely doomed...
I don't see why it should be different between ubuntu and gentoo, I guess it is just some local prefs file lying around or something. Is it reproducable on a fresh user ?

Is it reproducable on a > fresh user ? I tried that before and checked again now, with fresh user. No luck. I also unmerged epiphany completely and looked for remaining files (with epiphany in the name), in case if something is left from old versions. May be something wrong with my setup. I think we can give up now unless anybody else can reproduce it. Thanks
Vadim, If you have any new info about this issue, don't hesitate to reopen this bug. Thanks
