Comment 15 for bug 1869881

Hi

I am still experiencing the problem! Creating a .whatever file, it opens directly in gedit, using nautilus on a local drive. Doing exactly the same using nautilus on a sftp, it will:

1) Complain file of unknown type
2) Clicking "select applications" will not suggest any default application, so need to click on View all Applications. Then selecting gedit will open once.
3) Not remember any choice, so every time I close gedit and try to reopen, problem 1) and 2) occur.

When was the bug thought to be fixed? I have:

$nautilus --version:
 GNOME nautilus 3.36.3
$apt list libglib2.0-bin
 Listing... Done
 libglib2.0-bin/focal-updates,now 2.64.3-1~ubuntu20.04.1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
 libglib2.0-bin/focal-updates 2.64.3-1~ubuntu20.04.1 i386

Thanks!
