[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#538093: thunar: When installed replaces nautilus as default GNOME file manager

[Jaime Alberto Silva]

Package: thunar
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software


After installing XFCE and therefore Thunar; Thunar is selected as default
file
manager in GNOME. I don't know if it also affects KDE or other DEs.

Here is what happens when I log in my GNOME session: Nautilus still takes
care
of the desktop and if I double-click a desktop folder or drive I get a
Nautilus
window, but if I open an entry in the "Places" menu it is opened with Thunar
instead
of Nautilus, also when I enter a path in gnome-do or in the "Run
Application" dialog
it is opened with Thunar instead of Nautilus.

I have not been able to find a way to make GNOME open the paths with
nautilus again.
