Need some help here. :)
Does KDE3/Trinity use the globs file from the mime-database structure?
How do we add mimetypes globally on a system so users do not have to manually add new
mimetypes?
Is the KDE/Trinity /usr/share/mimelnk directories redundant with the information provided
by the mime-database directories?
What is the correct way to create new desktop files in /usr/share/mimelnk, especially when
a person is not fluent in dozens of languages?
Shouldn't these upstream software providers be providing mimelnk desktop files that
get installed automatically?

====================================
Trinity should have these mimetypes built-in to avoid those
messages.
I know each user can add the mimetypes manually. That is
cumbersome. How do we do this programmatically? I seem to
have forgotten. There is no master profilerc file.
Would be nice when building Trinity that these mimetypes
are recognized automatically.
