On my current system I have gnus 5.13; when an attachment comes in 
and I hit enter (such as a PDF attachment), it now fails, trying 
to use gv, which I don't have in place. I would like it to use 
xdg-open, thereby using the system default, but I can't seem to 
find what variable needs to be adjusted. A little help?

Customizing mailcap-user-mime-data did the trick for me.
