Hello List Mates, A patch was submitted earlier today by maintainers of shared-mime-info. This fixes the broken iso file associations appearing as plain text files. Bumping priority for ISO images glob matching. See: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80877#c14 I have passed the information to my Bugzilla report. See: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=904100#c21 If you can't wait for the new release it can be fixed quite easily. Open /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml Search for the x-cd-image entry The original glob pattern entry is: <glob pattern="*.iso"/> Changed it to: <glob pattern="*.iso" weight="80"/> Close Dolphin or Konqueror. Run as root: update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/ Restart Dolphin or Konqueror to view the changes. -- Cheers!

Hello List Mates,

A patch was submitted earlier today by maintainers of shared-mime-info. This fixes the broken iso file associations appearing as plain text files.

Bumping priority for ISO images glob matching. See: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80877#c14

I have passed the information to my Bugzilla report. See: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=904100#c21

If you can't wait for the new release it can be fixed quite easily.

Open /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml Search for the x-cd-image entry

The original glob pattern entry is: <glob pattern="*.iso"/>

Changed it to: <glob pattern="*.iso" weight="80"/>

Close Dolphin or Konqueror.

Run as root:

update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/

Restart Dolphin or Konqueror to view the changes.

It did not work. I also got after update-mime-database: Unknown media type in type 'all/all' Unknown media type in type 'all/allfiles' -- fr.gr. Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

It did not work. I also got after update-mime-database:

You must have done something wrong. Many users have found this as a satisfactory patch. This an official patch. Check the links to shared-mime-info. Tested this on openSUSE 13.2. I've done this ten times and it always works. Open konsole, type kdesu kate and open /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml Select Edit--->Go to line 7200 and 7201 My modified entries show: <glob pattern="*.iso" weight="80"/> <glob pattern="*.iso9660"/> Click on Save. Close kate and Dolphin. Type: su - update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/ Here's the entire entry. Reply

That has nothing to do with Firefox per se, but with the update-mime-database tool. These "mime-types" are stored in these two files: /usr/share/mime/all/allfiles.xml /usr/share/mime/all/all.xml both of these files are created by "update-mime-database". IMHO the pure existance of these files is a bug, and a missbehavior of the "update-mime-database" tool. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

- Yamaban. I agree.

I must correct this. Yes, the files are created by the tool. But further investigation showed, that these are created from a mime-type-source file, see: /usr/share/mime/packages/kde.xml (kdelibs4 package) This file contains the "fake" mimetypes all/all and all/allfiles [code]  <mime-type type="all/all"> <comment>all files and folders</comment> </mime-type> <mime-type type="all/allfiles"> <comment>all files</comment> </mime-type> [/code] IMHO that should not be there. Can some some that uses KDE intensive (Baloo, Konqueror, Dolphin) plese test what happens if you comment that out and run "update-mime-database", as well do a logout/login from KDE afterwards. If there are no negatives, I'd like to propose a removeal upstream. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

- Yamaban. I just commented out that entry and ran update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/ The two lines no longer appear.

- Yamaban. Yamaban,

I don't understand the purpose of these files or the entry. I also believe the entry should be removed upstream with the shared-mime-info people. Cheers!
