Description Peter Simonyi 2020-03-16 06:16:04 UTC
Description of problem:
The MuseScore desktop file is installed claiming it can open files of type text/x-lilypond, but MuseScore can't actually read LilyPond input files.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mscore-3.4.2-1.fc31.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a LilyPond input file.
2. From Nautilus, open it in MuseScore (that became the default when I installed mscore)
3. 

Actual results:
MuseScore opens with a "Load Error" dialog saying "Cannot read file [path to file]: unknown type".

Expected results:
MuseScore is not listed as a "recommended application" for opening .ly files.

Additional info:
Apparently LilyPond import was an experimental feature before 1.0 but was removed before 2.0.  It's long gone now, anyway.
