Summary: add shared-mime-info package
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P4
Component: Other
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org

The shared-mime-info package contains the core database of common types and the update-mime-database command used to extend it.
The attached files and patches add the shared-mime-info package to buildroot. The only thing that is actually needed in the target is the file mime.cache. In order to generate that file, shared-mime-info is installed into the staging-dir. The idea is that other packages might add more mime-info files and these should be collected in staging-dir. From there the mime.cache file is created using tools installed in host-dir and copied to target.

shared-mime-info.mk with a minor fix
Here's a new version of shared-mime-info.mk with a minor fix. Now compiles cleanly from a fresh buildroot snapshot.

--- Comment #6 from Thomas Petazzoni <[email protected]> 2009-04-29 07:29:25 UTC --- I've committed your patches with small modifications (r26235 and r26236). They
build correctly for me, for my limited testing.
However, there's one thing that I'm not sure about. You re-generate the MIME cache from $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/mime in the POST_INSTALL hook of shared-mime-info. But what if a Buildroot package adds a file to $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/mime *after* the execution of shared-mime-info's POST_INSTALL hook ?
If a package adds something in $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/mime, it should probably depend on shared-mime-info, which will trigger the compilation of shared-mime-info and the execution of its POST_INSTALL hook before the compilation of the package.
Am I misunderstanding ? If not, what solution does you see to this problem ?

--- Comment #7 from Sven Neumann <[email protected]> 2009-04-29 07:59:13 UTC --- If a package needs to add mime-types, then it needs to install them in staging_dir and invoke update-mime-database with the correct paths. In order to make this work, we probably need to install update-mime-database into host_dir. It shouldn't be hard to get this working. So far I don't have a need for this though and without a package that actually installs new mime-types it is probably not worth to prepare the infrastructure for this.
I suggest that this bug is closed as FIXED.

Resolution| |FIXED--- Comment #8 from Thomas Petazzoni <[email protected]> 2009-04-29 08:38:56 UTC --- Ok, that makes sense.
FWIW, we already have update-mime-database in $(HOST_DIR) :
$ file build_arm/host_dir/usr/bin/update-mime-database build_arm/host_dir/usr/bin/update-mime-database: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
