Bug#502737: [openoffice.org-writer] Missing mime-mapping entry for .oxt
Thanks for looking into this!

AFAIK /usr/share/mimelnk/application is used by KDE3 (so konqueror should pick it up now correctly). Gnome (nautlius) uses /usr/share/mime, KDE4 is supposed to use this too. It works in the 2.4.1 packages? Ah, nevermind. It didn't work in nautilus in 2.4.1 either.. Hmm, I don't see substantial differences in either the .desktop files, the openoffice.mime nor the Debian .mime files... ... except the ooo-extension.desktop of course which seems to help for telling mozilla what to do with an oxt. Which is a good thing too! -- Guido -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think we should. The extension I used worked perfectly (and I might end up packaging it) but we shouldn't try to block users from installing extensions by not adding a mapping. In the worst case there should be a warning in the unopkg gui. -- Guido -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They downloaded an extension after all. /usr/bin/openoffice bla.oxt so mapping this to /usr/bin/openoffice (openoffice.org-common) seems to do the trick for all kinds of extensions. Then it could be mapped directly to unopkg. Which indeed was the case in the 2.4.1 packages but then got lost in 3.0, most probably because upstream doesn't provide a -extension.desktop anymore.
