And I do see significant risk of problems; while the mime handler for
.deb files is incorrect, a diff of /etc/gnome/defaults.list vs
/usr/share/applications/gnome-mimeapps.list shows a number of

We should revisit how we ship the default going forward, at least use
the non deprecated filename. The reason we ship from desktop-file-utils
was that it was a smaller and less risky package to upload to change
default.
But for now the first fix would probably be to remove the .install line
from
The defaults.list handling is still valid,

GNOME 40 and newer doesn't use /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
file, I think this is the main issue why deb files are opened by Archive
Manager, for more info look at

Quick fix could be to change the
$ mimeopen -D gnome-control-center_1%3a41.4-1ubuntu13_amd64.deb
> Data dirs are: /home/jeremy/.local/share, /usr/share/ubuntu,

defaults.list is referencing the correct desktop file. It's installed
in /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/snap-store_ubuntu-software-local-
file.desktop
I don't know why it's not the default though, perhaps alphabetical in
the picker?
