Great tool! Super easy for maintainers to check their packages. I have fixes ready for x11-misc/spacefm, but I could not find a bug number to reference. Are we tracking this on bugzy or just pushing everyone to go ahead and update their ebuilds? I searched bugzy for 'fdo-mime' and the only relevant bug is 621914 [1], which I assume was the original discussion to get us onto xdg-utils since it's newer. If there's no tracker bug I need to reference, that's fine. Just wanted to be sure I'm not missing anything before pushing.
