User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0
Build ID: 20180621102100

Steps to reproduce:

1. Happen to have both Nemo and Nautilus file managers installed
2. Either:
- Use the "Open file" menu option
- Try to download anything
or
- Try to upload anything


Actual results:

Firefox opens Nautilus *even though* nemo is the default. `xdg-mime query default inode/directory` yields "nemo.desktop", `xdg-open` used on a directory opens Nemo, `cat /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache | grep directory` yields "inode/directory=nemo.desktop;org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop;"


Expected results:

Nemo should be used instead.
Oops, missed a duplicate. Still, this this has not yet been resolved for two years.

I wonder: is it so difficult to fix this bug?
