Hi,

Commit log for kde.xml Revision 644191 says:
<quote>
Remove old-style .desktop files, and turn them into a kde.xml file
[snip]
During make install, update-mime-database is run to process kde.xml

But apparently this does not work properly,=20

Looking at the shared-mime-info-1.2 tarball I found a file HACKING whic=

</quote>

This apparently generates the file freedesktop.org.xml and add all tran=
slations=20
from the po folders for a mime type definition e.g.:
<mime-info xmlns=3D"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-in=
fo">
  <mime-type type=3D"application/andrew-inset">
    <comment>ATK inset</comment>
    <comment xml:lang=3D"ar">=D8=B4=D9=83=D9=84 ATK</comment>
[snip]
    <acronym>ATK</acronym>
    <expanded-acronym>Andrew Toolkit</expanded-acronym>
    <generic-icon name=3D"x-office-document"/>
    <glob pattern=3D"*.ez"/>
  </mime-type>

The last step is apparently missing in kde or am I completely wrong her=
e?
