I am also interested in this, there are simply to many bugs related to shell quoting behavior etc that break something else when they get fixed. Unfortunately I have been moved into a different team at work for the next few months and don't have alot of time atm. When I did some initial research into the idea I planned to split the mime stuff out of pyxdg into a python-mime library and use that as well as creating a separate python library for things like desktop_file_to_binary etc Unfortunately I didn't get past the design stage. While I don't have much time in the next 6 months once you upload the code i'll happily review it and help test it on openSUSE. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
