And for dolphin from the command line: KMimeTypeTrader: no entry offset for "application/LabView" ...though dolphin shows the correct icon; konqueror... not so much -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But note that this only fixes it for KDE Frameworks5, e.g. dolphin. It (filetypes with upper case characters in the name) is (still) completely broken in kdelibs4, KDE4 applications (like Konqueror) apparently do not even recognize such a file type. I will see whether the same patches would fix it there as well, or if further fixes would be needed. PS: You don't need a symbolic link .config/mimeapps.list -> /home/danny/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list. KDE uses/respects both. The version in Leap 42.1 only writes the latter though, and the former overrides the latter. So if you use other desktop setting applications that already write the file to ~/.config/, such a symlink can be useful, because otherwise changes in systemsettings5 wouldn't have any effect. Starting with 5.6, systemsettings5 writes to ~/.config/ (as ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list has been deprecated by freedesktop.org), so this is no problem any more (and it is no problem anyway if you only use KDE). And I say it again: if you only use lowercase characters for the filetype name, everything should work as expected, in both KDE4 and KF5. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Should be fixed according to the last comment

Yes, it is fixed in KDE Frameworks5 (since about a year), but not in kdelibs4. That means that konqueror in 42.2 is still affected, and every KDE4 application also in later versions (konqueror is KF5 based in TW and 42.3). The question is just if it is necessary to backport the fix, considering that the problem actually must have been present for years *before* this bug report. As I already have done that, I'll probably still propose it upstream, if they accept it then it should at least get into Tumbleweed... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
