Title:
  xdg-mime query filetype does not work on KDE 5 (Fixed in Portland)

Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  System information:

  cat /etc/lsb-release:
  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
  DISTRIB_RELEASE=15.04
  DISTRIB_CODENAME=vivid
  DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 15.04"

  apt-cache policy xdg-utils:
  xdg-utils:
    Installed: 1.1.0~rc1-2ubuntu10
    Candidate: 1.1.0~rc1-2ubuntu10
    Version table:
   *** 1.1.0~rc1-2ubuntu10 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Expected behavior:

  The command "xdg-mime query filetype $FILENAME" returns the MIME type
  of the specified file.

  Actual behavior under KDE 5:

  No output to stdout. If the specified file is executable, it is
  executed, e.g. "xdg-mime query filetype /usr/bin/xclipboard" executes
  the program xclipboard.

  Source of error:

  The xdg-mime script checks in the function "info_kde()" only for KDE
  version being 3 or 4. The new Kubuntu release bundles KDE 5 which is
  not checked against.

  This bug is fixed in the Portland repository:
