Public bug reported:

Chromium adds these MIME entries that over the default browser (firefox
nightly) settings on my computer. This quite annoying because I have set
Chromium not add itself as default browser nor check for it.


Even after I delete the entries, Chromium adds them on next reboot.  This 
*really* bad ! 
 
 /usr/local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
