Hi guys,
I recently upgraded my Arch from GNOME 3.6 to 3.8 and there is an issue that is driving me crazy: when I use the "Open folder" option in Deluge (clicking the right mouse button on a torrent) or when I click on "Show folder" in Chrome's Download window Anjuta pops up instead of Nautilus... why's that? Is there a way to fix this?
I tried to remove Anjuta and that fixed the issue but when I install it again the problem reappears.
Thank you,
Axel.

Looks like the mime settings got mixed up. Nautilus has been made a fallback option for opening directories instead of anjuta, hence removing anjuta fixed it.
try setting the folder association to nautilus through alacarte or something similar.

I thought about that and I restored MIME configuration... well I thought so.
alacarte is for the GNOME "Application Menu" configuration, do you know the name of the app I should use to modify MIME associations?

community/mime-editor
maybe that one can help in MIMe editing??
Well, I suppose that this is somekind of signature, no?

Sorry, I haven't used it in a while, got confused there.
Apart from what jritsz suggested, there's xdg-utils too.

Uhm... what is the MIME type of a folder?
Offline
I'm after a solution for this too, tried using mime-editor but couldn't figure it out.
Found the mime type "Folder" but wasn't able to solve the issue.
Has anyone been able to ?

Try inode/directory.

Try something like:
$ xdg-mime default nautilus.desktop inode/directory

$ xdg-mime default nautilus.desktop inode/directory
This solved it for me. Thanks a lot!
Hope it works for axelgenus too.

The trick also solved my problem. Thank you x33a.

This issue seem to happen again. When download a PDF and click on "Open Directory" in Epiphany it opens Evince (why?) and Anjuta (why???).
Furthermore the PDF-Plugin seems not to work any longer within Epiphany. This worked at least until monday this week.
And most weird:
$ xdg-mime query default inode/directory
nautilus.desktop
Any ideas?
The file "usr/share/mime/packages/anjuta.xml" looks normal

Maybe I found the reason:
FS#42422 - [evince] plugin loads GTK3 shared library into apps using GTK2 (Firefox, Thunderbird) causing freeze
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42422
I assume a bunch of side-effects.

Sorry for using the old thread. I've created an bugreport on upstream:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739064

In GNOME 3.14 and nautilus.desktop was apparently renamed to org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop so I had to use
xdg-mime default org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop inode/directory
Offline
Thank you!
I wonder how Anjuta managed it to break the mime-types always. I just decided to spend some bucks for "Builder", in the hope Christian Hegert will build a shiny new IDE for GNOME.
In the meantime I've just removed Anjuta entirely
I'm anyway using only VIM
