As you may have guess, I found a mimetype problem for any trinity
applications.
I just found out that k3b for trinity cannot open/recognize its own saved
projest files/mimetypes (just like chalk doesn't). However k3b for kde4 could
and that was the clue.
Install chalk and try to open a template. Or create and save a project with
k3b for trinity. See if they work. I don't think it will. I'm not jumping to
the conclusion that I'm right. However I have seen this across 29 machines so
far.
The reason, I think, for that is because these mimetypes are for kde4 (best
way I can explain it). I can open k3b saved projects in k3b for kde4, but not
in k3b for trinity. The mimetype designs for kde3 / 4 are not compatible with
r14. These appears randomly throughout the gui, for example kword cannot open
an rtf anymore etc etc.
As I dig deeper I'm finding more of this. I can do work arounds but they're
ugly and not sustainable.
These problems only relate to trinity and does not affect gtk or others.
Please let know what all of find.
When I have time I'll try to file a bug report.
Thanks
Kate

ISTR it did likewise on the original .zip source I got by trying to snarf
a complete web site so that I could have all the docs in hand as hard
copy. wget failed on that too, but probably unrelated, the site didn't
like a recursive wget. There appears to be no place on the net, where a
comlete .pdf of the dovecot docs can be had. You have to take it, one
page at a time from their web site & print that. And that sucks too
long dead toads thru soda straws. No index, no cross-refs? Bad dawgs.
Not your problem either Slavek. Do carry on, IMO at a job that can be
thankless at times, but which is very handy for us users. I thank you
for that, very much.
