Bug 105143 – bittorrent-4.1.4: add MimeType=application/x-bittorrent to .desktop file

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ed Catmur 2005-09-07 06:03:58 UTC]

To reproduce:

click on a tracker in Epiphany. Epiphany doesn't know what to do with it.

Expected:

Bittorrent opens up and starts downloading.

Easy fix: add MimeType=application/x-bittorrent to the .desktop file:

        if use X ; then
                cp ${D}/usr/share/pixmaps/${MY_P}/bittorrent.ico
${D}/usr/share/pixmaps/
                make_desktop_entry "bittorrent" "BitTorrent" \
                        /usr/share/pixmaps/bittorrent.ico "Network" "/usr/bin/"
                echo "MimeType=application/x-bittorrent" \
                        >> ${D}/usr/share/applications/${PN}-bittorrent.desktop
        fi

Just fixed entry in /etc/mailcap. That should resolve your problems with
Epiphany and bittorrent.

OK, but now Nautilus doesn't know about the association...
