Description Felipe Contreras 2010-06-03 22:22:42 UTC 
I install gvim, now gvim is the default.

I install emacs, now emacs is the default.

Installing an editor package should not modify:
/usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache

If they do, the should append themselves *last* in the list.

Comment 2 Felipe Contreras 2011-04-27 10:22:22 UTC 
Hellooooooooooo?
Comment 3 Felipe Contreras 2011-05-25 12:36:24 UTC 
Sill happens on F15.
Comment 4 Felipe Contreras 2012-02-02 19:20:04 UTC 
And F16. But obviously nobody cares about this very annoying bug.

Now Fedora tries to open text files with Wine's notepad. Awesome.

Good bye Fedora.
