When upgrading my gnome 2.8 from testing with above mentioned package mimetypes gets messed up.

Fx, when clicking on "Computer" on desktop, instead of showing the icons for Filesystem, CDs etc. I get uniform icons named "Filesystem.desktop" "DVD.drive" and so on.

try updating again and run update-destkop-database,
if it still doesn't try running update-desktop-database -v

Still no go. Uploaded the output from update-desktop-database -v as root.

I run as a test user in an Xnest session. Is that enough or should i restart X?
