Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Recently when I right clicked on a media file there were two entries for
VLC in the menu which appeared (only one of which worked).

When I selected the 'Open With Other Application', there were seven
instances of VLC, only one of which worked (the others said 'Could not
find 'wxvlc').

There were also three instances of Text Editor, and two of Amarok and
Firefox.

Thanks to some help I got at the Ubuntu forum, I managed to remove the
duplicate entry from 'Open With', but the multiple entries for various
programs remain in 'Open With Other Application'.

It seems that when some programs are updated, an entry in 'Open With
Other Application' and (in the case of VLC) 'Open With' is duplicated.

Ubuntu 8.10 (Updated 7.10>8.04)
Nautilus 1:2.24.1

Thanks to bscbrit on the Ubuntu forum. Thread here with screen shots:
