Normally this is not a problem but when run from a rpm scriptlet it shouldn't print anything unless its an error. The packages can just redirect the output to /dev/null to avoid this but a cleaner solution is a "-q" option that can be passed to update-mime-database. The attached patch adds it. Another solution would be to print warnings only when in verbose mode.

Some messages like "Please run as root" are warnings and they should show up by default.

While I agree that KDE shouldn't be defining these at all, they should only show up with some switch. http://bugs.gentoo.org/261446 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/shared-mime- info/+bug/289592/comments/8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-01-09T10:04:10+00:00 pva wrote: I'm not sure, but why https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shared-mime-info/+bug/289592 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=469833 http://bugs.gentoo.org/261446 mention this bug as a "fix"? It looks like kde.xml does something unusual and either this should became allowed in specification or prohibited. But in any case trying to hide the problem does not sound like a good solution. So I guess the real question here is, what do do with the following mime: <!-- all/ fake mime types --> <mime-type type="all/all"> <comment>all files and folders</comment> </mime-type> Should update-mime-database warn about them or ignore?
