Title:
misidentifies .html file as Perl script when it contains JavaScript
"use strict"
Status in shared-mime-info:
Unknown
Status in shared-mime-info package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in shared-mime-info package in Debian:
Unknown
Bug description:
For .html files `xdg-mime` reports wrong type. The culprit is the
`"use strict"` phrase which is used in JavaScript. It should not
mistake .html files for anything else except of text/html !
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Run the following step by step in any folder:
1. $ echo "\"use strict\"" > index.html
2. $ xdg-mime query filetype index.html # -> application/x-perl - this should
be text/html!
Platform:
Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa)"
Linux version 5.4.0-42-generic (buildd@lgw01-amd64-038) (gcc version 9.3.0
(Ubuntu 9.3.0-10ubuntu2))
