Bug ID: 1205825 Summary: KDE always associates *.jar with the zip mime type Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Java Assignee: java-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: f.alexander.wilms@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: ---

By default, Dolphin opens .jar files in Ark instead of trying to run them with java -jar

kmimetypefinder -f example.jar and xdg-mime query filetype example.jar

both return

application/x-java-archive

I'm not sure if this is an issue in KDE or in openSUSE.
