Bug#90483: [mime-support] Add it to documentation

2014-05-05 Thread bastien ROUCARIES
There is a good explanation in http://bugs.debian.org/745141#17 that %s should
not be quoted in /etc/mailcap because a program can not rely on it blindly.  I
am therefore closing this bug (#90483).


Hi charles,

Do you have added it to documentation (manpage) ?

Hi Bastien,

I am adding a link to RFC 1524 in the mailcap manpage.

I have mixed feelings about improving this manpage.  Quite obviously, it was
not made in Debian.  But I can not find an upstream source anymore.  In that
sense, I would like to avoid divergence with other platforms.

I will contact the maintainer of the mailcap package in Fedora to see if we can
join forces and become upstream with other distibutions if there is no
alternatives.

Have a nice day,
