<pre>First noticed in xdg-utils v1.1.3-1. In xdg-open's function open_lxde(), it's
using shell operator '-a' when it should use '&&'. That causes all URLs to be
opened with pcmanfm, and that's broken for URLs such as <a href="https://example.com">https://example.com</a>.
Here's the fix:
--- xdg-open.bad
+++ xdg-open.good

# pcmanfm only knows how to handle file:// urls and filepaths, it seems.

local file="$(file_url_to_path "$1")"
