Browse does not open Dolphin File Browser in KDE #338

Open Verizane opened 2 months ago

Verizane commented 2 months ago

Describe the bug timeshift has issues to open the target directory via "Browse" button, when the File Browser is Dolphin in KDE.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Started timeshift-launcher from command line via
sudo /usr/bin/timeshift-launcher
  1. Created fresh snapshot
  2. Clicked on "Browse"
  3. The command line shows: 
    QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
kf.service.services: KApplicationTrader: mimeType "x-scheme-handler/file" not found
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
/usr/bin/xdg-open: 491: test: Illegal number: 
/usr/bin/xdg-open: 492: test: Illegal number: 
/usr/bin/xdg-open: 493: test: Illegal number: 
Running Dolphin with sudo can cause bugs and expose you to security vulnerabilities. Instead use Dolphin normally and you will be prompted for elevated privileges when performing file operations that require them.

Expected behavior Open Dolphin with the target directory of the snapshots

System: Debian 12 KDE Plasma 5.27.5 timeshift-version: 22.11.2
