Indeed. You can request a handler or several handlers for multiple mime types at once. I also cannot imagine a good use case for requesting several mime type handlers at the same time. But that is the given design of the PackageKit API that we need to implement here. The same is true for multimedia codecs - and more obvious: You e.g. need a handler for the audio stream, the video stream and the container format. In a cornor case all three handlers are located in separate packages. There is a small logic in session-installer that pre-selects the package or the best packages that provide all handlers by default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1125514 Title: Wording fix for "Install software to open files?" window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sessioninstaller/+bug/1125514/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
