Hi,
After updating from CentOS 4.92 to 5 through manual hacks and 'yum update' (see http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2007-April/079023.html), I've lost all gnome file associations. Now every file is identified as application/octet-stream or text/plain or x-directory/normal (for directories).
I've checked everything with 'rpm -Va' but couldn't find problem related to mime types.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks Leonardo
This problem is related to my username, because when I create a new username, Nautilus shows correct file associations.
So I've just made a backup of my home directory and created a new one, then erased all files owned by my username inside /tmp and restarted the computer. Even now the file associations are wrong for my username.
What can be still wrong in my system?
