[Easytag-mailing] EasyTAG- Bug Report - Inappropriately specified mimetype in desktop file causes problems



Operating System = openSUSE 12.1
kernel = Linux 3.1.9-1.4-desktop
Desktop = Gnome 3.2.1

Before installing EasyTag, whenever (usb) removable media devices were inserted, the resulting dialogue box looked similar to this example (where [ ], [  ] and /\ represent icon approximations):


 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | [ ] FAT32                                                                         |
 |           [  ] Open with Files                                               |
 |            /\  Eject                                                                 |
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------

After installing EasyTag however, the top option Open with Files was inappropriately replaced with Open with EasyTag.


Online research suggested that EasyTag defined a non-compliant Mime Type (namely x-directory/normal;) in /usr/share/applications/easytag.desktop and that the use of the x-directory/normal Mime Type was discouraged.

Because of this, I investigated deleting the x-directory/normal Mime Type from the desktop file and the line “x-directory/normal=easytag.desktop” from /usr/share/applications/defaults.list. These edits indeed restored the (removable media inserted) dialog box to what it was originally.
