xdg-mime isn't supposed to be run as root, IIRC. Try manually
creating
the applications directory and an empty mimeapps.
Ok, I thought of trying that but it seemed too easy. I made the
directory "applications" and an empty file "mimeapps.list" and
then
xdg-mime ran and vlc is offered instead of Parole. Don't know why
one computer was configured differently than the other? But the
problem is fixed!
Thank you,
Bob
