The question (one of the questions) is what's putting them there, and I
would guess one of the emacs packages is doing it.
update-mime(8) ยง DESKTOP ENTRIES
In addition to the abovementioned mechanism update-mime also
parses desktop entries in /usr/share/applications/
to generate mailcap entries. These entries are given
a lower priority than those in /usr/lib/mime/packages.
It seems there are a couple of bugs in update-mime:
1. It does not perform an unquote pass that should retain only a half of
backslashes from Exec field of .desktop file.
2. It does not skip x-scheme-handler/* entries. Are there applications
that may use such entries?
Perhaps there is a bug in s-nail as well.
