Upgrade from 3143 to 3170 on Linux KDE5 launches Abiword instead!

#1

Hi!

I am on 3.0 3143 Linux KDE5 (Debian) and I know that 3170 was recently released.

When I started Sublime today I was prompted to upgrade, but after clicking Okay, my Abiword editor launches instead.

Yea, WTF, that’s what I said.

I have not knowingly done anything to break stuff, and I don’t even use Abiword on a regular basis.

Previous Sublime upgrades have not had any similar problems on this same system.

I guessed that maybe it was some file association, but Abiword only seems to use .abw files, and I don’t see any .abw files anywhere in Sublime’s directories.

I don’t even know what is going on.

So did it upgrade ST, or did clicking on “Okay” to upgrade just open AbiWord instead of your web browser?
Maybe try following the instructions at http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/3/linux_repositories.html to upgrade.
