[SOLVED] Where does Lagrange on linux find the PDF viewer?

I would like to change the viewer being invoked (currently pdfarranger) and am stumped on this.

Youve stumbled into a pit of hell. Google xdg-mime to get started.

I see it is some excrable effluvium from freedesktop.org (something I try to stay as far away from as possible).

Thanks for the pointer!

Thanks to the clue from @stack I was able to fix my issue in ~ 5 minutes. Now lagrange opens PDF files in xpdf (no gnome here ...)
