             Bug #: 49204
           Summary: xdg-open: open_generic_xdg_mime ignores options and
                    field codes in Exec field
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Portland
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: xdg-utils
        AssignedTo: portland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: rephorm at rephorm.com


For a generic desktop environment, the Exec entry of a .desktop file is not
properly parsed, and only the first word is used. Any options or field codes
(e.g. %u) are ignored. This breaks app launching if command line options are
required and is not compliant with the specification.
