[Bug 1382977] [NEW] Default open with wrong

 

Public bug reported:

A few files are defaulting to the wrong application. Updated Utopic
Xubuntu install

Currently

torrents are defaulting to open with Archive Manager

mp3's are currently defaulting to Easytag.

For mp3 /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache originally was
audio/x-mp3=parole.desktop

I have since installed Clementine, Soundconverter and Easytag in that
order.

mimeinfo.cache now shows

audio/x-mp3=easytag.desktop;parole.desktop;soundconverter.desktop;clementine.desktop;

removing all except clementine makes no difference to what shows on the
right click open with menu's


pdf's were defaulting to Gimp. I edited /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache to remove gimp which worked for that
