    Citrix launch.ica opening in text editor, not Citrix Receiver

    I have Citrix Receiver installed. I guess I installed it on a previous version of Ubuntu (13.?). I probably haven't used it since updating.

    Today I tried to run Citrix and downloaded the launch.ica file, but when I clicked to open it, it only opened in a text editor.

    I tried right-clicking and selecting the application to send it to, but Citrix Receiver was not on the list of applications (Open With...Other Applications...Show Other Applications), and I couldn't figure out how to browse to it from that context menu.

    Do I need to update Citrix Receiver for the current Ubuntu version, or is the launch.ica something I should be running from the command line? (And if so, how?)

    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Maybe I should ask a different question.

    If I assume that I need to reinstall Citrix Receiver since updated to Ubuntu 14.04, I'm not sure how to proceed.

    I've found a page that talks about installing Citrix Receiver 12.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CitrixICAClientHowTo), but I'm not sure whether I'm running 32- or 64-bit.

    Also, is it necessary to go down to a previous Citrix Receiver version in order to install it on Ubuntu 14.04? The current version of Citrix Receiver is 13.0. Can that not be installed on Ubuntu 14.04?

    +++++++++++++


    Just tried following the instructions linked above to install Citrix Receiver 12.1 onto Ubuntu 14.04. The package lib32z1 was not found.
