Description Joe Da Silva 2013-01-01 23:30:07 CET
Description of problem:
If using Konqueror or Dolphin, if you have an existing *.odt file that you want to open, it opens up an exploded-view of the *.odt file instead of starting-up Libre Office.

Right clicking the *.obt file and selecting Libre Office correctly loads Libre Office and the the file.

Also on a similar note, if you load KDE "File Associations", *.mpeg lists Audacity as the first choice, but this is better to select VLC since *.mpeg is a video file.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia 3, Beta 1, fully update with today's latest patches.

How reproducible:
Konqueror or Dolphin, click on the *.odt file

2 workarounds,
1) right click and choose Libre Office to open the *.odt file.
2) Find related *.odt in KDE "File Associations" and add Libre Office as the correct program to load a *.odt file (I have not found the right spot for this and am currently filing the bug before I found the related *.odt if it exists).
