In 1.9.5 opening of images does not seem to trigger any action?

(flatpak version)

ilac, do you see anything relevant in the debug log? View -> Debug Console -> Log or press Shift+Ctrl+X

meson, nothing at all.

Even with --verbose.

also nothing in journalctl? ✏

meson, nothing.

ilac, sure lovetox or cal0pteryx can help you better Just as a last idea, you could check what it tries to open using the `dbus-monitor`: search for `.var/app/org.gajim.Gajim/data/gajim/downloads/` and look for something like `string "org.kde.gwenview"` or `interface=org.freedesktop.impl.portal.AppChooser; member=ChooseApplication`

I am looking for the code that deals with that.

Hum, it relies on dbus?

flatpak is a sandobox it needs "portals" and permission, to execute something on your system

e.g. opening the photo viewer application

you need to have the proper dependencies installed on your system that provide these portals

Ah! It's trying to load it up with the wrong viewer.

https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/tree/master/flatpak

there is a readme with all dependencies

if some file extension maps to the wrong application, this may also help

Yeah, so that's the thing. The gio mime image/jpeg returns the proper viewer.

Alright, `flatpak permission-reset` fixed the problem.

`flatpak permissions desktop-used-apps` helped showing what was wrong.
