mime-types

sobotkama · 2017-12-07 15:21:03

So I've tried to install firefox with

pacman -S firefox

and appaerently, it depends on mime-types, which I couldn't be found anywhere (I've tried yaourt as well with no success)

warning: cannot resolve "mime-types", a dependency of "firefox"

Can I do anything about it, or do I just have to stick with chromium?

mime-types is no longer, use mailcap and install firefox from testing, this works.

Oh, thanks. That worked. The problem was actually mailcap not being available outside testing.

sry, that was me - I deleted all the packages which are not on x86_64-arch anymore from our repositories. But apparently, some of the stable packages still depend on them, because the new, undependent ones are still in testing.
