Package: cone Version: 0.89-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Cone deals with MIME attachments according to the specification of *.filter files, one for each MIME type. The current package comes with a small number of such files, with application names hardcoded within. Since these specific applications may in general not even be installed these files serve as little more than examples. A more suitable approach would be to use the /etc/alternatives system. In any event the tedious job of creating these files for all relevant MIME types is left to the user, when this information is already available in the mailcap file. Ideally, cone could use the mailcap file to deal with attachments. Alternatively a script could be run at installation time which reads the mailcap file and generates all *.filter files at once. Thank you for considering these possibilities, João -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.46 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cone depends on: ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libfam0 2.7.0-17 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.2-5 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.31-1+nmu2 ii libncursesw5 5.9-10 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.1e-2 ii libstdc++6 4.7.2-5 ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-7+nmu1 cone recommends no packages. cone suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
