I have completely rewritten Mimeo in Python 3 while trying to adhere to the current standard on freedesktop.org. Please use the forum thread[1] to report Mimeo errors and give feedback to keep the discussion in one place. [1] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=86855

@xduugu The specification has changed a bit since Mimeo was written. Kludging in the new changes to the current messy codebase would be error-prone. I have been meaning to overhaul and rewrite it in Python 3 for years and with this I have finally started. I don't know how long it will take though, but I will post an update as soon as I have the time to finish it.

Hi Xyne, according to [1], the default location of the mimeapps.list file is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mimeapps.list and $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/mimeapps.list is deprecated and only kept for compatibility. The specification also says that the default applications are stored in the mimeapps.list file as well. A default.list file is not mentioned in the specification. Could you adjust mimeo to comply with the specification? Thanks a lot! [1] http://standards.freedesktop.org/mime-apps-spec/mime-apps-spec-1.0.html

Hi Xyne, thanks for mimeo. It's a great replacement for xdg-open. There is only one feature I'm missing: Would it be possible to introduce an additional commandline option to bypass the file extension check in line 755: mimetype = mimetypes.guess_type(rpath)[0] and always rely on the file utility instead? Similar to mimeopen's option: -M, --magic-only Do not check for extensions, globs or inode type, only look at the content of the file. This is particularly useful if for some reason you don't trust the name or the extension a file has.

Fix typo from pazpi's comment. yes it does work. gpg --recv-keys 1D1F0DC78F173680

To verify your gpg key, just run gpg --rev-keys 1D1F0DC78F173680. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg#Signature_checking

Never mind, I answered my own question by reading the docs more thoroughly. My solution involved doing some configuration for gpg so that it retrieves the keys. A wiki edit might be in order to make it easier to find the solution for those who don't use gpg regularly.

Source verification is failing (unknown public key. In a bid to force it through I disabled the sig in the PKGBUILD but then it fails with a bad md5sum.

@Alad When looking through the code today I noticed that preferences are already added to the both the defaults.list file and the "Default Applications" group of the mimeapps.list file. They are also read from both files, in that order. Mimeo should therefore already be compatible with xdg-mime. I have updated Mimeo to import preferences in defaults.list into the group in mimeapps.list. Running "mimeo --update" should do this. I recommend against using the suggested symlink trick. If you still don't get compatible behavior, please give me a reproducible example so that I can determine what is wrong.
