Strange error

Hi,

When I lauch wxPython (and wxWindows/C++) apps (like xrced), I often get
this error message:

   Mailcap file /home/fma/.mailcap, line 1: incomplete entry ignored

Why ?

On unix some things (like the file dialog for example) will read the mailcap and mimetypes files in order to find icons and such for file types. If there is a syntax or unexpected attributes in those entries then a warnig is logged. I think it has been changed in 2.5 to be a little more forgiving and won't generate warnings like this all the time.
