[Bug 1504462] [NEW] REGRESSION in Kubuntu Vivid 15.04: Okular ignores "default applications" in KDE system settings

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Hi,

in Ubuntu Vivid, KDE applications such as Okular, completely ignore the default applications defined in the KDE system settings.
This happens with the KDE PPA that provides plasma 5.3.2 and frameworks 5.12.

To reproduce:

- Open the KDE system settings -> Applications -> Default applications configuration windows
- Indicate that you want to use a "Different email client"
- Select thunderbird as the email client
- Open a document containing a mailto: link in Okular
- Click on the link and see kmail popping up.

Unfortunately, having configuration options that are visible but do
nothing can be a major source of confusion.

Does someone know if this is fixed in the upcoming Wily?

Hello Sergio,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with the kubuntu-meta package not accepting Thunderbird as default email program. You made this bug report in 2015 and there have been several versions of Kubuntu since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug?
If you are, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 1504462
and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Kubuntu better.
G
