Bug Description
I am using okular on a gnome desktop. In a PDF file I am viewing with okular, there are embed links of the form "file:/
So, I go to the File -> Open dialogue of okular, chose a .gif file, do right-click -> properties, click on "File Type Options", and try all kinds of things to remove ImageMagick as the first option (Remove, Move Down, Move Firefox up). Then I press OK.
An "Updating System Configuration" window briefly pops up, but the status bar does not grow very large (stays at about 5%). Then the window closes.
Then I click "File Type Options" in the Properties dialogue again.
Expected result: my requested changes have been made.
Actual result: nothing changed, ImageMagick is still preferred application for .gif files.
Fix of the bug welcome, but also hints as to which config file to change by hand for this.
