Dear Maintainer,

With a freshly installed Bookworm (arm64 but that shouldnt matter)
system with LXDE + evolution installed, xdg-email says this:
xdg-email
/usr/bin/xdg-email: 750: gnome-open: not found

worker@debian:~/Downloads$ apt-file search gnome-open
xpra: /usr/lib/xpra/gnome-open

It seems xpra is the lone provider of gnome-open as of now and as of
arm64. I can't install xpra here as it is a huge package and a security
risk in here. The old libgnome2-bin package which traditionally carried
the gnome-open command is long gone.
I suspect this is a detection issue related to my LXDE I presume.
I also tested with the version in sid and I have the same issue.
I have the same issue in XFCE too.
Also, If I xdg-open mailto://submit@bugs.debian.org

(evolution:25837): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 15:00:11.028: Your application
did not unregister from D-Bus before destruction. Consider using
g_application_run().


This works and pops up a new Compose Evolution window. So, the
mechanism works in theory it's just the gnome-open call that breaks
xdg-email here.

Thanks and have a nice day,
Alexandru Mihail

xdg-email is currently being fixed and refactored upstream. See:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/-/merge_requests/153

This will likely be resolved, or at least the behavior will change, in
the upcoming xdg-utils 1.3.0 release.
