Dear Robert and Drew,
this could be done with the following patch.
--- a/update-mime
+++ b/update-mime
@@ -189,6 +189,11 @@ sub ReadOrder
s/\s*\#.*$//;
next if m/^\s*$/;
push @order,$_;
+ /(.*):/;
+ my $pkg = $1;
+ unless( grep {/^$pkg$/} keys(%packages)) {
+ print STDERR "Warning: package $pkg
listed in /etc/mailcap.order does not have mailcap entries.\n";
+ }
}
close(FILE);
} else {
However, I am unsure if it would be a good idea to apply it, because I wonder
if there are systems where on purpose there are mailcap.order entries for
packages that are not installed. In that case, update-mime would become
verbose, and it is run each time mailcap and Desktop files are modified…
What do you think about this ?
