Bug#282281: kde: KDE applications take over Gnome file types
Package: kde
Version: 5:42
Severity: normal
Installing the KDE desktop packages after having installed the Gnome
desktop (and possibly running KDE once) causes KDE to take over lots
of mime types from Gnome even when running Gnome. For example, MP3's
are now played with noatun. Also, Nautilus keeps crashing when trying
to view folders with multimedia content, which may be due to Nautilus
trying to invoke KDE applications.
It seems to me that something is seriously broken with the KDE packaging
for Debian. Installing KDE packages or running the KDE desktop should
not make the Gnome desktop less usable.
