--- Comment #29 from David Redondo <k...@david-redondo.de> --- > The idea was that it's fine for Gnome to ignore our InitialPreference and > it's fine for KDE to ignore Gnome's global file, since we want different > defaults. Yes but glib applications inside plasma will still open the "wrong" application since glib can't know InitialPreference. We would either need to generate a kde-mimeapps.list that respects the order or maybe more elegant teach update-desktop-database InitialPreference so in mimeinfo.cache the order is what we (KDE) expect and not alphabetically. > But Gnome's global file was supposed to be called gnome-mimeapps.list, not > defaults.list. The seem to carry it has deprecated for backwards compat https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/blob/main/gio/gdesktopappinfo.c#L1021 Maybe it could only be read in GNOME session guarded by an env var. >Isn't it the distro's fault of providing the legacy file? Yes. It illustrates that it is a hard problem with non-standard from both sides. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
