Sorry I forgot to specify this more clearly, with file properties or context menu I specifically refer to file properties or context menu of .exe files selected in nautilus (windows executables). I confirm this bug and I think it's about wine packaging mistake. Looks like this bug has been rejected as wine's bug on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=984141 this would presumably just work if the mime system knew about the kind of binary you have there and reported the expected mime type I remember being told by a gnome dev this is no longer true: because Nautilus wants to make things easier it only lists graphical applications which have a .desktop file and it has no way of allowing the user to pick another one based on the binary anymore. So I would assume unless you provide a .desktop file too, it won't work. But maybe I recall this incorrectly, you should speak to a nautilus developer. (sorry if you are actually a nautilus dev, feel free to ignore my possibly incorrect ramble then) This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is 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 change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
