[Bug 397376] Re: xdg-open should use gvfs-open on Gnome

[Chris Coulson]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xdg-utils
  
  xdg-open currently uses gnome-open on Gnome. However, gnome-open mangles
  some URI's (eg, ghelp: and mailo:) due to GFile roundtrips, leading to
- bugs such as bug 259945.
+ bugs such as bug 337235.
  
  gvfs-open avoids the GFile round trips by using
  g_app_info_launch_uris(), and passing the raw URI commandline arguments.
