This bug is fixed in Mandriva.

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

This bug is still in maverick with this package version:

Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1)
OS: Linux

.desktop files shipped in 0.11.2c fail using desktop-file-validate, among the errors include invalid mimetypes:

Error in file "/usr/share/applications/kde4/kmplayer.desktop": "uri/mms" is an
invalid MIME type ("uri" is an unregistered media type)
Error in file "/usr/share/applications/kde4/kmplayer.desktop": "uri/pnm" is an

Error in file "/usr/share/applications/kde4/kmplayer.desktop": "uri/rtspu" is

missing "Player" category, and invalid locales.

Reproducible: Always

last one missed adding "Player" to Categories

[Koos-vriezen (koos-vriezen)]

Looks fine to me. I think those uri/* mimetypes were valid in KDE3, where one could register for a certain protocol too.

Remove uri/xxx mimetypes and x-test language

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

I was reminded on irc that indeed the uri mimetypes are defined in kde.xml (in kdelibs). This probably ought to be fixed differently than just dropping them here then. I'll try to investigate the options.

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

Oh, and the [x-test] locale entries will get re-added by scripty anyway.

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

Ok, will likely have to take a similar approach as
http://svn.reviewboard.kde.org/r/6111/

[Koos-vriezen (koos-vriezen)]

Just let me know whether I should revert the uri/* removal. Looking at the file association configuration in konquerors settings, I think I indeed should.

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

Yeah, I'd say revert it for now, pending a "proper" fix, sorry for the hassle here.

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

This bug is still in natty with this package version:

Package: kmplayer
Version: 1:0.11.2c-1

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

Wow, looks like the origin's of these mimetypes go all the way back to:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2010-October/011629.html
http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=380464

It's been suggested we try to use the
x-scheme-handler/...
type referenced here,
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2010-October/011629.html
instead, which seems like a fit to me.

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

This bug is still in oneiric (the package version is still the same as in natty).

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

Bug fixed in saucy with this package version:

Package: kmplayer
Version: 1:0.11.3d-2

[Rdieter-math (rdieter-math)]

Finally got annoyed enough to update reviewboard, see
https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/101231/
for fresh proposed patch.
