Created attachment 162911 [details] Many libraries are depicted as manual pages SUMMARY *** The wrong file association (and icon) of shared libraries which names end with .[1-9] is somewhat hardcoded in Plasma and it is not possible to change it, no matter what you would do in GUI. They are presented as manual pages, despite file command shows they are shared libraries. I have tried: 1. removing pattern *.[1-9] from application/x-troff-man association 2. adding pattern *.so.*.[0-9] to application/x-sharedlib association. It doesn't work. I suspect there is some fundamental problem with kcm_filetypes, which prevents an ordinary user from doing whatever they want with file associations. You can see in attached screenshots what have I done and how still wrongly Dolphin shows shared libraries for example in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I don't know how, but now, after I have reset both file type associations, this bug is not present. Perhaps I had some old settings (I have fought with this bug earlier). I'm closing this bug report.
Closing this, as this is no longer an issue for the reporter.
