Package: mime-support
Version: 3.54
Severity: normal
mutt fails to open an image with the following error message:
gwenview: '<caption>' missing.
gwenview: Use --help to get a list of available command line options.
This is caused by update-mime creating a mailcap file, which still
contains "-caption %s":
$ grep -m1 image/gif /etc/mailcap
image/gif; gwenview %s -caption %c %i; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"
This is copied from the original .desktop entry:
$ grep ^Exec /usr/share/applications/kde4/gwenview.desktop
Exec=gwenview %U -caption %c %i
According to
<http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#exec-variables>
%c should be replaced by the (translated) name of the application.
The attached patch replaces the %c with the (untranslated) name.
This fixed the problem for me and makes mutt work again.
