Crash while attempting to change MIME types

Package: control-center Severity: normal Version: 1.0.51 >Synopsis: Crash while attempting to change MIME types >Class: sw-bug Distribution: Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot) System: Linux 2.2.14-5.0 i586 unknown C library: glibc-2.1.3-15 C compiler: egcs-2.91.66 glib: 1.2.6 GTK+: 1.2.6 ORBit: ORBit 0.5.0 gnome-libs: gnome-libs 1.0.55 gnome-core: gnome-core-1.0.55-12 >Description: This one looked like it was just a weird crash. I had just installed RealPlayer 8, and I had edited three of the audio mime-types (.wav, .rm, and .au), because the GNOME File Manager kept giving me the following errmsgbox when trying to play a .WAV file by double-clicking on it: "Unable to open "/mnt/cdrom/TakhisisPublic/peekaboo.wav" with the command "realplay %f &"" To fix this, bring up the mime-properties editor in the GNOME Control Center, and edit the default open-actio for "audio/x-pn-windows-acm". So, I changed the command to /usr/local/RealPlayer/realplay &f &, hit the "Try" button, and tried double-clicking again on a .WAV file, and I got the same errmsg as above, only with the full pathname specified in the fourth line ("/usr/local/RealPlayer7/realplay %f &""). At this time, I noticed that there were two double-quotes, so I went back into the GNOME Control Center, and upon attempting to edit the "audio/x-pn-windows-acm" mime type (by double-clicking on it), I got the crash in the GNOME Control Center, and bug-buddy came up and asked me if I wanted to submit this report. I hope this helps out. >How-To-Repeat: Please see the "Full Description of the Bug" section. Debugging information: (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...
