Filter rules in local.convs do not replace entries in mime.convs in Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Issue
- Cups seems to ignore lines in
local.convswhen an existing line inmime.convsmatches. - The local configuration in
local.convsis appended to themime.convsand if you have duplicate "first parameter" entries in bothlocal.convsandmime.convsthat thelocal.convsentries are not found as first-to-match search is used. - The only way I can successfully get the line changes:
text/plain application/postscript 33 texttops text/html application/postscript 33 texttopsto work in
local.convsis to comment out the line inmime.convs:# text/plain application/postscript 33 texttopaps # text/html application/postscript 33 texttopapsTheir goal again is to not modify
mime.convsat all and to only make the changes tolocal.convs.
