I added xdg-utils as a recommended package, since it includes xdg- open, which should open irc:// URLs. I am going to leave the browsers in as a fallback, since it is better opening only http:// than nothing at all.
Firefox is not a fallback for XChat.
I'm going to leave it at that and close this report, if anyone wants to take this up, they can reopen this bug.
Well, it's a different bug now anyways: pd-extended tries to open unsupported url-schemes in webbrowsers. (xdg-open here throws irc-schemes to iceweasel btw.) I think the only valid solution is to handle web urls like http:// and application URLs like irc:// differently in Pd. (I don't file a report as I use pd-vanilla.)
Yeah, that's why gnome-open is first. It's not an ideal situation, but since most people use GNOME (its default on Ubuntu and Debian), I'm going to leave it for now. It would be great if someone who is a KDE user or anti-GNOME/KDE made it all run smoothly.
