This started a month or so ago, presumably as a result of an update.
When certain programs open, most frequently Konqueror and Kicker, I get popup warnings, "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream". Kicker does 7 of those all at once before it finishes starting, Konqueror only one. While using Konqueror, another pops up frequently, and sometimes goes away on its own in a few seconds if I don't click it away. It's gotta be something simple, but I haven't had time to debug it. How do I fix this?
Machine is MX Linux w/ TDE 14.0.13.

I had to create a minimal ~/.trinity/share/mimelnk/application/octet-stream.desktop file with this content - maybe it works for you, too:
[Desktop Entry] Comment=octet-stream Hidden=false Icon= MimeType=application/octet-stream Patterns= Type=MimeType
