iceweasel download panel uses gimp for pdf



When I download a pdf in iceweasel and click on the download icon to open the list of downloaded files, and click  on a pdf file, gimp starts.

I want okular to be used instead.  How can I do that from the download panel?  (I know I can open the file independently).

Also, when I open the containing folder (from the same download panel) gwenview starts.  I want a regular file browser.

I can't figure out where this is set.  The pdf application association in iceweasel has "always download"; I think these are settings for embedded content on web pages, and don't control file associations from the download pane.

I'm running under KDE; it lists okular as the  top file association for pdf, though gimp is an alternate.

I suspect iceweasel is using a more GNOME-ish configuration option, but inspection of files in my home directory (and configuration subdirectories) doesn't turn up anything.  In particular http://computers.findincity.net/view/635399295212048058250644/pdfs-open-in-gimp-on-linux-system says to edit ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.lst, but that  directory is empty (though it exists).

Running wheezy.

Thanks.
