           Summary: Unable to configure default file manager in System
                    Settings.
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux

           Product: systemsettings

I want to use Nautilus (from Gnome 2) as the default file manager. I'm using
KDE 4.8.2.

To reproduce:
1. Open System Settings, Default Applications.
2. There is no entry for Nautilus. So, choose "Other...".
3. Click on the button right to "Other...".
4. Click "Add". There is no entry for Nautilus (not even as "File Manager" or
anything). So, type in "nautilus" and click "OK".
5. For some reason, the "nautilus" command is recognized now, and "File
Manager" appears at the top of the list.
6. Click OK. The "Updating system configuration" dialog appears and closes
shortly.

Back in the "Default Applications" control module, the choice is now no longer
"Other"; it went back to "Open Folder with Thunar", in my case. If you click on
the selection button again, the supposedly added "File Manager" is missing.
