In package shared-mime-info there is update-mime-database.c and around
line 51 there is a hard-programmed list of mime types used to flag
invalid MIME types
================
/* This is the list of directories to scan when finding old type files to
* delete. It is also used to warn about invalid MIME types.
*/
const char *media_types[] = {
"text",
"application",
"image",
"audio",
"inode",
"video",
"message",
"model",
"multipart",
"x-content",
"x-epoc",
"x-scheme-handler",
};
================
in the get_type function around line 261 the program scans the hard-
coded list of mime types or it returns the error that everyone is
complaining about.
================
for (i = 0; i < G_N_ELEMENTS(media_types); i++)
{
if (strcmp(media_types[i], type->media) == 0)
return type;
}
g_warning("Unknown media type in type '%s'", name);
================
