I do not have this file, and I have the shared-mime-info package installed. I wonder where this file came from (i.e., which package actually triggered update-mime-database). Unfortunately you won't be able to use 'dpkg-query -S' on it. I tried searching on codesearch.d.n to see if any package installed this file, but couldn't find anything. I tried to create this file on my $HOME, but I still can't reproduce the bug. Can you please try to temporarily remove the file and see if it fixes the problem? > I wonder why type="application/x-extension-html" and not > type="text/html", but ideally, the real MIME type should be > obtained by sniffing, not by using the extension.
