Description Per Olofsson 2007-06-26 13:53:41 UTC 
Hi,

In the case block at line 717 in xdg-mime, there is no case for xfce:

case "$DE" in
        kde)
        info_kde "$filename"
        ;;

        gnome)
        info_gnome "$filename"
        ;;

        generic)
        info_generic "$filename"
        ;;
    esac

Thus, "xdg-mime query filetype" doesn't work under Xfce.

Indeed, changing "generic)" to "*)" should fix.
