Hi Notes- 1) Apologies in advance for the slightly lame component.. I'm not sure which exact package owns the mime types 2) I guess the KDE desktop should be checked too, if it gets the mime types from a different location? To demonstrate some problems, go to "The GNOME configuration tool", section "Document handlers", item "Mime types". Bug #1) The application for "mpeg" (and various other movie formats) is set to "xanim". XANIM IS NOT SHIPPED IN A FULL RH7.0 INSTALL! Should the handler application be e.g. "gtv" instead? (note that gtv doesn't handle all the formats xanim does) Bug #2) "ee" is set as the viewing application for a lot of image types. Isn't there a shift towards gqview as the GNOME viewer? I guess this bug should be treated as a generic MIME application handler review. Shouldn't take too long. One more note. Why are there many many different MIME definition files? e.g. /etc/mime.types /usr/lib/mime.types /usr/share/mime-info/ It is very non-unified and confusing.
#1 - xanim is included in powertools, gtv is not included with anything, so xanim is probably the lesser of two evils #2 - ee is perfectly functional and not (yet) deprecated
