2009-10-22 Thread Hung Dang
Thanks a lot for valuable suggestions. By running update-mime-database
~/.local/share/mime/ my GNOME applications work again :).

This doesn't exist here.

> # update-mime-database /usr/share/mime

This is done by the ebuild, you need to do it for /usr/local/share/mime
and it should be done as root.

> % update-mime-database ~/.config/mime

This should be ~/.local/share/mime/ and needs to be run by each user.

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288312 contains the details, and
the elog from emerging shared-mime-info also covers the details now,
although it didn't when the current version was first added to portage.

Open a root console and cd to /etc/env.d. Edit file 30xdg-data-local
and look for a line like:

XDG_DATA_DIRS='/usr/local/share'

and change it to:

XDG_DATA_DIRS='usr/local/share:/usr/share'

The do env-update, logout and login again.
