             Bug #: 44163
           Summary: xdg-open fails on encountering a list for
                    x-scheme-handler
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Portland
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: xdg-utils
        AssignedTo: portland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: freedesktop.zen.ssokolow at spamgourmet.com


According to Specifications/mime-actions-spec, an entry in mimeapps.list is
supposed to be treated as a semicolon-separated list of applications, sorted
from most to least preferred.

However, with current git HEAD (b961235b197647d6649ef3d48d7cc2cecafe3d47),
xdg-open simply treats it as a filename and uses the $BROWSER fallback if
xdg-mime returns a semicolon-separated list.
