This may be related more deeply to Gio but gvfs cannot open remote uri's. There is a [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32020 similar bug] reported for Gimp but this is a more general issue that I also experience when programming with Giomm and trying to use Giomm::File to open remote uris.

If not, you should report the problem to the developers of the software. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32652#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

To tell {{{gvfs-open}}} how to process http(s)-URL, put the following into {{{/opt/local/share/applications/open.desktop}}} and execute {{{sudo update-desktop-database}}}. {{{ [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Name=Open Exec=open %U Terminal=false Type=Application MimeType=x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https }}} For me, this helped for gvfs-open, but not for gimp. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32652#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

On a second thought, it seems that gvfs is working just fine here for me, and gvfs-open does not show the expected behavior just because there is no port with a .desktop file containing a http(s)-handler installed on my box. I guess installing firefox-x11 would help, too.

firefox-x11 was removed in r115717; are there any other ports whose .desktop files contain a http(s)-handler? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32652#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
