shared-mime-info should handle mimetypes, etc, now.

I take it back, you actually need an app installed that claims to be able to
handle that mimetype, that provides an icon.

So I guess KWord is only registering it with the old KDE 3 system? KOffice 
probably needs to be fixed to use shared-mime-info.

ignore me, for now, I'll keep digging.  :)

Should pick of OO too:


/usr/share/applications/openoffice.org-1.9-writer.desktop:
MimeType=application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text;application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-template;application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-web;application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text-master;application/vnd.sun.xml.writer;application/vnd.sun.xml.writer.template;application/vnd.sun.xml.writer.global;application/vnd.stardivision.writer;application/msword;application/vnd.ms-word;application/x-doc;application/rtf;application/vnd.wordperfect;application/wordperfect
Icon=openofficeorg-writer


Icons are here:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/openofficeorg-writer.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/openofficeorg-writer.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/openofficeorg-writer.png
/usr/share/icons/locolor/16x16/apps/openofficeorg-writer.png
/usr/share/icons/locolor/32x32/apps/openofficeorg-writer.png

FYI - I don't have koffice.

The file type icons don't come from the application (in other words, that 
Icon=openofficeorg-writer is irrelevant). An icon matching the name of the MIME 
type is searched.

So it should be using:

/usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/mimetypes/application-vnd.ms-word.png

?

Maybe a naming/alias issue:

  <mime-type type="application/msword">
    <sub-class-of type="application/x-ole-storage"/>
    <glob pattern="*.doc"/>
    <alias type="application/vnd.ms-word"/>
    <alias type="application/x-msword"/>
  </mime-type>


gnome has:

/usr/share/icons/gnome/16x16/mimetypes/gnome-mime-application-msword.png

I tried various things here, but couldn't get the mimetype to match/use the
icon.  Something is amiss, but I think at least it's partially some goofy and/or
duplicated parts in the application/msword.xml mimetype.

Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Is this still an issue with KDE 4.0.5?

Yes.

Ping

I'm seeing this with KDE 4.1.2 on latest rawhide.

It indeed was a shared-mime-info bug, fixed yesterday upstream.

Not really. The original bug is on F9, and F9 has shared-mime-info-0.30-3.fc9 which doesn't have the bug fixed yesterday.

Either reassign it to whatever KDE bit is handling the icon fetching, or mark this as an F10/rawhide bug.

fixed *upstream* (or so I was told by dfaure):
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18072

I know, I'm the upstream maintainer of shared-mime-info. That doesn't answer my question though.

Looks like recent kde's (tested kde-4.1.85 here) workaround it, so any combination of recent kde + shared-mime-info is mmm good.

Ok, let's bounce this back to kde...

Ok its bounced back into our laps.  What do you want to do with it?

It's blocking on kde42 updates.   When they land, this is fixed.

i don't see this issue anymore in F10 with 4.2.0.

Indeed.  I do still still see ? for the following:

.cert
.crt
.p12
.sxi
.sxw
.xlsx

But perhaps these are general mime issues...
