Description Götz Waschk 2006-04-04 08:14:45 UTC
Please describe the problem:
In shared-mime-info 0.17 the alias x-directory/normal for inode/directory was
added. This breaks the associations for the directory type in nautilus 2.14.0.
Previously with shared-mime-info 0.16 you could associate directories with
applications and open them using the "Open With" menu. Removing this alias from
freedesktop.xml reenables this.
