May be relevant: Recent versions of update-mime-database do (imo needless) fsync writes, which can make it take up to 30-50 seconds on some systems. See also: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70366 One can opt-out of that setting: PKGSYSTEM_ENABLE_FSYNC=0 which may be desirable for tests such as these. -- Rex _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
