I'd say this is a local configuration issue (your handler points to an invalid program). Here I don't have a Gnome installation, and the output is firefox. |
Created attachment 309219 [details] emerge.info The acroread shell wrapper through the current version (9.5.1) outputs an apparently inconsequential error message when run on a system without a GNOME installation. In 9.5.1, the offending command is on line 529, which doesn't validate that a target file (looked up in gconf) actually exists. In my case, I ran the command on line 527, which produced the result "epiphany" (the GNOME default browser?), which is not installed, leading to calling readlink and then dirname on an empty string.
