Something like this: $ xdg-settings get default-web-browser xdg-settings: unknown desktop environment There ought to be some better way maybe, but you'd at least find out if the XDG utilities are in path and think the environment is set up correctly. Please not that XDG cautions against using its services for root, so that'd be another vector to check. > Since we are close to a release, maybe I should revert > the commit for now and solve this with more time. Or you could leave it in and see who complains. The instances where xdg-open doesn't work or is not correctly configured will probably be in multi-user / corporate environments where it is unlikely that the newest Org or Emacs is installed anyway.
