[Bug 1518053] [NEW] xdg-mime can read .config/ defaults but can never set them

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Chad Miller (cmiller):

mimeapps.list has changed

It used to be in .local/share/applications/ . Now it's in .config/ .

"xdg-mime query default" reads from both locations, but no "xdg-mime
default NEWSETTING" can ever overwrite a setting in
.config/mimeapps.list .  It writes to
.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list only.
