This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle. Changing version to '14'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This bug also affects Fedora 13 (gnumeric-1.10.0-1.fc13.i686) and earlier releases *** Bug 587620 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The problem is in the checker, not in Gnumeric. "zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" is real mime type. See, for example, http://filetonic.com/blog/tag/file-extension/. It is unregistered and probably violates a spec or two somewhere, but it is real. When the spec and reality disagree, the spec is due for service. Upstream bug is here https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619303 I am not sure why it is WONTFIX as opposed to NOTABUG. (In reply to comment #4) > The problem is in the checker, not in Gnumeric. .... > I am not sure why it is WONTFIX as opposed to NOTABUG. It is clearly a BUG. Maybe not that crucial after all but it is there. Where and how it should be fixed is another question. OK, this BUG now starts to interfere with me updating gnumeric: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gnome-chemistry-utils-0.12.6-2.fc14,goffice-0.8.13-1.fc14,gnumeric-1.10.13-1.fc14 Similar to 587566. I've filed a bug upstream for this: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41286 gnumeric-1.10.17-1.fc16.x86_64 is affected, too. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fixed in gnumeric-1.11.5-1.fc17.x86_64. |
Description of problem: The following is reported during an installation: Error in file "/usr/share/applications/fedora-gnumeric.desktop": "zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" is an invalid MIME type ("zz-application" is an unregistered media type) This is likely an old entry but something started to care. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnumeric-1.10.0-1.fc14
