File Associations all duplicated

[Philippe Hemmel]

Maybe your configuration files are all duplicated : in the kde global
directory (/usr/share/applnk for me) and in your local directory
($HOME/.kde/share/applnk for me). And maybe you don't need all these
files to be in your local directory, if they contain the same
information than the global ones.

Try to delete (or move) some of them. Take care that they can contain
your application preference order for some mimetypes (which application
has to be used at first to open a mimetype).

Regards.

Philippe
