Description chris.the.ebb 2009-04-16 08:20:08 UTC
emerge recommends after emerging x11-misc/shared-mime-info

 * Messages for package x11-misc/shared-mime-info-0.60:

 * 
 * The database format has changed between 0.30 and 0.40.
 * You may need to update all your local databases and caches.
 * To do so, please run the following commands:
 * (for each user) $ update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime/
 * (as root)       # update-mime-database /opt/gentoo/usr/local/share/mime/
 * 

if you try to execute these cmds, I get an error msg:

(to get administrator rights, I changed environment with su -m)

Administrator@Chris ~ $ update-mime-database /opt/gentoo/usr/local/share/mime/
update-mime-database: I don't have write permission on /opt/gentoo/usr/local/share/mime.
Try rerunning me as root.

Administrator@Chris ~ $ update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime/
