Or is it Rex as indicated in > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2015-July/212403.html ? It used to a direct copy of the Workstation (GNOME) defaults. Now it's a copy of nothing, and folks that care about it can ask the new maintainer for changes. The GNOME/Workstation defaults now live in the gnome-desktop3 package. I'd encourage other desktops to ship their own mimeapps.list files to set defaults, and leave the mimeapps.list in shared-mime-info well alone (it shouldn't be needed, but "it broke things" not to have, and I never actually knew what it broke). _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
