i think associating rosegarden with *any* gzip file is more harm than not being able to open rosegarden files via the file-manager (and i think this is shat sebastinas also thinks) > > I believe it is better to get several options and be able to pick a > working one from them than it is to not get any options. i think the only valid option is to associate rosegarden with rg files only (and not with gz files it cannot handle). however, i don't really see the problem: afaict, rosegarden.desktop associates with a lot of mimetypes (audio/x-rosegarden-composition;audio/x-rosegarden-device;audio/x-rosegarden-project;audio/x-rosegarden-template), but rosegarden.sharedmimeinfo registers "audio/rosegarden" as the mimetype for .rg files - a mimetype that is *not* listed in the desktop file. maybe we should fix this first (and maybe provide a rosegarden.mime file if this doesn't help). fmasdr IOhannes
