Package: icedove Version: 2.0.0.16-1 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software File: /usr/share/applications/icedove.desktop
Icedove lists several MIME-types in /usr/share/applications/icedove.desktop, which ends up associating files of those types (e.g.: HTML, GIF, JPEG, PNG) with Icedove when the "update-desktop-database" command is run. This doesn't seem appropriate, since icedove is not actually able to open these files: when I double-click on a JPEG file in Nautilus, for example, Icedove launches and shows me my e-mail and *not* the image that I selected. It also looks like icedove specifying MIME-handlers is accidental, rather than being intentional, because icedove's installation-scripts do not run "update-desktop-database"--this means that installing icedove will not immediately update the file-associations, but they'll instead change when another (unrelated) package-installation/-upgrade does run "update-desktop-database". If I remove the `MimeType=' declaration from /usr/share/applications/icedove.desktop and run "update-desktop-database", my desktop operates sanely again. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages icedove depends on: ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.6.0-1 generic font configuration library ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.6.4-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.7-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.3.1-9 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.11-3 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhunspell-1.2-0 1.2.6-1 spell checker and morphological an ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libnspr4-0d 4.7.1-3 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libnss3-1d 3.12.0-5 Network Security Service libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.20.5-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-1 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.3.1-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.1.4-2 X11 client-side library ii libxft2 2.1.12-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-2 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii psmisc 22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime icedove recommends no packages.
