            Bug ID: 200768
           Summary: Add shared-mime-info to WPE WebKit jhbuild
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WPE WebKit
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: clord at igalia.com
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

Much like the Gtk backend, the WPE backend also relies on shared-mime-info to determine filetypes on a local filesystem. As it's not currently in the jhbuild modules, it will rely on the system one. This became evident recently as shared-mime-info 1.12 (current release as of writing, and included in Fedora 30) causes some html files to be incorrectly identified as xhtml, which in turn causes test failures (and weird behaviour for local files). To circumvent this, we should build shared-mime-info in jhbuild and rely on that version.
