This package contains:
- The freedesktop.org shared MIME database spec.
- The merged GNOME and KDE databases, in the new format.
- The update-mime-database command, used to install new MIME data.
To install:
Do the usual:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
If you want to install to your home directory, you should instead do:
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local
$ make
$ make install
You'll need to make sure that $HOME/.local/bin is in your PATH, of course.
See http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards/shared-mime-info-spec for more
