Description Vincent Untz 2006-06-21 07:13:32 UTC

I don't like seeing the output of update-mime-database, so I think adding a
verbose command line switch would be nice.

Patch will follow.

patch

IMHO, it'd be best to use -v for verbose and -V for version, but I don't want
to break stuff...

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2006-07-09 04:41:09 UTC

To not break stuff the easiest would be to add a "-q" (for quiet)...

Updated patch

This adds -q. I'm not fond of the verbose mode by default, though. Especially
since the output doesn't look useful for 99.999% of the people out there ;-)

I don't think this would break anything, but if you prefer -q, I won't fight.

Alternate patch using g_log and filtering out chatter

Here's the patch I sent in bug 8161 which uses g_log.

Argh, my secret tactic has been uncovered!  :-P
