Package: icedtea-netx
Version: 1.7.2-2
This is actually a follow-up to #924706. The symlinks have been fixed
since, however the mailcap entries are still wrong.
$ ls /usr/share/icedtea-web/bin/
gives
itweb-settings.sh itw-modularjdk.args javaws.sh policyeditor.sh
The alternatives' links seem to be fine...
/etc/alternatives/javaws -> /usr/share/icedtea-web/bin/javaws.sh
/usr/bin/javaws -> /etc/alternatives/javaws
... but /usr/lib/mime/packages/icedtea-netx still contains
application/x-java-jnlp-file; /usr/share/icedtea-web/bin/javaws %s
As a result, all programs using the mailcap system to run javaws fail to
do so.
Depending on what location is preferred(?), I suggest that
/usr/lib/mime/packages/icedtea-netx should contain
application/x-java-jnlp-file; /usr/share/icedtea-web/bin/javaws.sh %s
or
application/x-java-jnlp-file; /usr/bin/javaws %s
Best regards,
Phil
