This is due to a mistake in the .desktop file, which I fixed in commit
f18a23a, but apparently I didn't push the bugfix branch after that
commit it, and I merged origin's version into experimental...

Now commit f18a23a is pushed and also merged into experimental, so this
branch should truly be ready for review. I've tested an experimental
build, and opening links works remotely in both KeePassX and Claws Mail.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
