But, here is something equally bizarre..... I did the following.... 1. yum erase of ktorrent and transmission 2. logout/login 3. xdg-open magnet ---- fails as expected 4. yum install ktorrent 5. logout/login 6. xdg-settings get default-url-scheme-handler magnet returns nothing 7. xdg-open magnet ---- ktorrent is called 8. yum install transmission 9 logout/login 10. xdg-settings get default-url-scheme-handler magnet returns transmission-gtk.desktop 11. xdg-open magnet ---- ktorrent is called ???? why not transmission? I think I need to know what files are altered by the xdg commands and what are the system-wide v.s. per-user config files. -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.
