Description Martin von Gagern 2010-03-15 08:25:55 UTC

This is a spin-off from bug #228885 comment #38, with a very limited scope: Please adjust the elog messages of shared-mime-info to avoid confusion, i.e.
1. only refer to /usr/local/share/mime if such a directory exists and
2. indicate that missing dirs indicate no need for action.

Attachment #184413 [details, diff] takes care of both these issues, and still applies to current shared-mime-info-0.71.ebuild. I'll re-attach the patch here.

I've added something like this to 0.80, but commented the whole thing out in the ebuild because AFAIK the format hasn't changed in a while... 

If it does, your change should be there.
