Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

I just upgraded to Lucid. Now nautilus tries to open .exe files with file roller instead of wine. Ironically, the icon for the file is a wine glass, which indicates that some part of nautilus has correctly identified the file type, just not all of it.

This is not a Wine bug, it's a file-roller bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/351429

Wine already asks for the association (that's why it's on the right click open with menu), the problem is that file-roller is already on the system taking that slot.
