Description:
xchm.desktop specifies MimeType=application/x-chm but application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp is the IANA standard MIME type for Windows standard help files[1]. Also, shared-mime-info package has switched to using application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp, with application/x-chm as an alias[2]. With the xchm, xdg-utils and perl-file-mimeinfo packages installed, I get: $ xdg-mime query filetype CryptoPkg\ Document.chm application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp $ xdg-mime query default application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp <no output> $ xdg-open CryptoPkg\ Document.chm Can't call method "get_value" on an undefined value at /usr/bin/vendor_perl/mimeopen line 162. (The error from the last command could be a bug in xdg-utils or perl-file-mimeinfo but I think that's irrelevant here). Please add application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp as (additional) supported MIME type in xchm.desktop. Upstream has added it already, for internal use within the app[3].
