Description
Created attachment 83922 Fix for 1.1.0 rc1 - output from git diff
In Xubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) xdg-email fails and presents an error dialog stating 'Unable to detect the URI-scheme of "mailto:".'.
I observed this problem when using "Simple Scan" in this environment.
The problem is that exo-open does not support the mailto URI.
Versions this problem occurs in
Xubuntu 13.04 uses version 1.0.2 of xdg-utils.
This problem also occurs in 1.1.0 rc1 of xdg-utils.
How to reproduce
Run xdg-email from command line in Xubuntu 13.04.
Fixes
I will attach canidate patches for 1.1.0 rc1 and 1.0.2.
