calibre/imagemagick-6.q16 installs a crappy default viewer for PDF documents and does not allow changing it

[Santiago Gala]

Since I installed calibre, which brought imagemagick-6-q16 in, nautilus or firefox opens PDF documents with it, which does not allow me to read most of them.

Trying to change the default handler does not work, it always retains imagemagick handler.

$ apport-collect 1454643
You need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-collect to work.

(I'l do, just telling you that apport-collect is no longer installed by default as of 15.04, so you should say in the previous email)

Also, after it executed it said I had 14.10 (which I have not) and a package "linux", which It is what it prefilled in the bug and never let me change. The package is imagemagick-6-q16 and the version is 15.04

[Santiago Gala (sgala)]

Version is 15.04

Only a third user can set status as "confirmed".

Comment #3 asked you to set it that way, but this was because it assumed the affected package was "linux".

ok, I'll uninstall calibre until there it either respects evince or allows me to set who handles application/pdf mime type. I hope this bug will keep me informed of it.
