xdg-mime can't set default because qtpaths is not found

[Jayden295]

Describe the bug

When I try to set a default application using xdg-mime I get:

~ $ xdg-mime default appflowy.desktop x-scheme-handler/appflowy-flutter 
/run/current-system/sw/bin/xdg-mime: line 863: qtpaths: command not found

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Try to set a default app using xdg-mime (xdg-mime default desktopentry thing)
2. See that it fails with qtpaths: command not found

Expected behavior

I expected it to set the URL scheme to appflowy

Additional context

I also tried it with different apps (xdg-mime default io.github.zen_browser.zen.desktop text/html) and it still doesn't work.

It seems to still set the application in .config/mimeapps.list though.

Can't repro the error, seems like something specific to your config. Can you share it?

Here are my dotfiles: https://codeberg.org/Ash882/NixOS_dotfiles

It seems that adding kdePackages.qtbase to my packages fixes it.

What's the output of realpath $(which xdg-mime)?

~ $ realpath $(which xdg-mime)

Same, installing kdePackages.qtbase fixes it for me.
