Here's what I have for Xfce on Cygwin: https://github.com/cygwinports/garcon/blob/master/mimeapps.list Which is installed as %{datadir}/applications/xfce-mimeapps.list. I happen to ship it in garcon, but whether it goes there, in xfce4-session, or shared-mime-info doesn't really matter. What does matter is that XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is correctly defined: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11239 That should be in 4.12, but 4.10 (F21) would require a patch: https://github.com/cygwinports/xfce4-session/blob/master/4.10.1-XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP.patch -- Yaakov Selkowitz Associate Software Engineer, ARM Red Hat, Inc. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
