Sorry Bruce, it appeared during a long series of searches for mimeapps.list and mimeinfo.cache information. I tried to retrace my footsteps and here is one link which I definitely visited (though it doesn't look too familiar today) which says the same thing... http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/mimetypes-registering.html.en
The salient point is in para 2: [update_desktop_database]...will create a mimeinfo.cache file in the applications subdirectory for each directory in $XDG_DATA_HOME:$XDG_DATA_DIRS. Perhaps a little more persuasive is the relevant man page: http://www.manpagez.com/man/1/update-desktop-database/ Richard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
