poedit-1.3.7.ebuild doesn't call update-desktop-database to register .desktop file's MIME types. The effect is that poEdit doesn't show up as an application capable of opening .po files in GNOME (and presumably KDE and other freedesktop spec using environments) after installation. It only becomes visible after you install some other GNOME app with correct ebuild. Similarly on uninstall: poEdit will still be listed even though it isn't available anymore. Attached patch fixes this by using fdo-mime.eclass. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 131006 [details, diff] patch to use fdo-mime.eclass in pkg_postinst/pkg_postrm Patch to ebuild that fixes the bug.
Applied. Thanks. :)
