Saved search file opens in firefox instead of nautilus

Thank you for your bug report, I can't confirm the issue, what mimetype is listed when opening the nautilus properties dialog on it?
Could you add an example file to the bug?

does running "gvfs-mime --query" on the file gives any output?

The mimetype listed in the nautilus properties is "application/x-gnome-saved-search"

The output of "gvfs-mime --query vidal.savedSearch" is "No default applications for 'vidal.savedSearch'".

I'm adding an example file.

ok, I can't confirm there but maybe we should add nautilus as default handler for the mimetype in case, it's weird that firefox is started if it's not listed as an handler though

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

There seems to be a bug in glib there, I've opened https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678944

The issue has been fixed in upstream git

Hello Manuel, or anyone else affected,

Accepted glib2.0 into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/2.32.4-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

The fix for this bug has been awaiting testing feedback in the -proposed repository for precise for more than 90 days. Please test this fix and update the bug appropriately with the results. In the event that the fix for this bug is still not verified 15 days from now, the package will be removed from the -proposed repository.

I think It's not fixed, the saved searches still launches firefox. But if, after saving the search, in the same nautilus window, I double click on the saved search it works fine. If I open another nautilus window and double click on the saved search, firefox is launched.

we should probably not fail verification just because the fix is not perfect, the update includes other fixes and if it doesn't break anything it's still a good update to get

Ok, I just focused in this particular bug. Then, how should this bug be tagged, "verification-done"?

verification-failed is fine, I'm mostly letting the comment for the SRU team as a "please don't block the SRU on that"

I think this update is being ignored because of that; let's change to v-done.

This bug was fixed in the package glib2.0 - 2.32.4-0ubuntu1

---------------
glib2.0 (2.32.4-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #1154657)
    + GSettings: Don't crash due to incorrect handling of "/" (LP: #1154370)
    + gio: Stop ignoring defaults.list wrongly (LP: #901171)
  * Update watch file to track 2.32 series for Precise
  * debian/control{,.in}: Require libelf-dev >= 0.8.12, per configure.ac
  * gnetworkmonitor_dont_leak_networks.patch: Drop, included in this release.
  * Install bash completion files into /etc/bash_completion.d; overriding an
    upstream change (not appropriate for Precise) to install into
    /usr/share/bash-completion/completions. This change also names the
    completion files correctly (after the commands they are completing for),
    so they will start working now.
