The installation of Libreoffice 3.4.4 still does not set the necessary

There is a bug report about this since November 2010.

What is required to make this part of the 3.5 release ?
First - I'd try a daily build: http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ to see if it works in master. If no, probably you have to dig around the mimetype registration: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sysui/desktop/mimetypes and other desktop files: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sysui/desktop/menus Interestingly I see the .fod* file types there, see eg.: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sysui/desktop/mimetypes/oasis-text-flat-xml.desktop http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sysui/desktop/menus/writer.desktop Can you check if they are installed, used, etc.? Thank you, Kendy
