[Qt-creator] Qt Creator 1.3 "Show containing folder" failed xdg-open

[Ed Sutton]

I am a Linux newbie and am unfamiliar with either one.  From your tip I located in qtcreator-1.2.94/bin and tried to install using:

./xdg-desktop-install.sh -i

The installer complained with:

Required command xdg-mime not found.

Is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.x too old to be,  or not a type of XDG-compliant desktops?
