I think this makes sense. the mime DB is ~2.2MB -- or 200kB if we removed comments... (In reply to comment #1) > the mime DB is ~2.2MB -- or 200kB if we removed comments... It's really a bit worse: The installed version is split into 800 small xml files! With 4k block size that means ~3.6 MB. I took this thinking it was trivial to do before heading for holidays but... sorry Ross, I'm resetting the assignee. For a little more context: gdk-pixbuf already has a RDEPENDS on shared-mime-info for GIO image type sniffing (currently behind a packageconfig but upstream has already made that non-configurable and the recipe will soon follow). Patch on the list to just add the dependency as a recommends. I have a cunning plan for the space issue... oe-core 51e4f9ca5368af5cefa26f4ca50b282e858982f8 has addition of the recommends. |
