How to remove warnings like `Unknown media type ...`
Backup the file that is causing the errors and update the systems mime database:
sudo mv -vi /usr/share/mime/packages/kde.xml /usr/share/mime/packages/kde.xml.bak
sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
This should fix the warnings.
This was discussed in Why does update-mime-database complain about uri/rtspt and other unusual types? It is caused by kde.xml and they have not fixed it yet. Here is a bug report.
Also it's uri/rtspu
, not url/rtspu
you should be grepping.
You should check /usr/share/mime/packages
for the specific xml that contains the phrase you get .
For example, my problem was Unknown media type in type 'chemical/......
I found the file /usr/share/mime/packages/chemical-mime-data.xml
.
Using cat
on the file showed me that the package was the same chemical-mime-data V 0.94
So I ran:
sudo apt-get remove chemical-mime-data
