Bug#404015: libglib2.0-0: nautilus cannot work properly with new version of glib2

[Hongzheng Wang]

Package: libglib2.0-0
Version: 2.12.4-2
Severity: important



Hi,

It seems the new version 2.12.5-3 of glib2 make the mime system of gnome
unworkable.  That is, after upgrading to this new version, nautilus
can not open any file properly according to the mime type of
file by registered application.  When a user double click a file in
nautilus, it will report cannot open it; right click shows the default
open application registered becomes empty.  Further, manually adding
mime handling application does not work too.

I cannot understand how this bug occurs, but downgrading to version
2.12.4-2 of glib2 eliminates this problem obviously.  So this bug report
is filed.

Thanks.
