Hi, thanks for responding, I found out the cause recently and it is caused by the package of QT that my distro (Guix System) uses, specifically it is patched to point to a hardcoded xdg-utils/bin/xdg-open (http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/qt.scm#n545) which isn't guaranteed to be there because it isn't protected from garbage collection, so isn't something that Quassel needs to fix.
