Bug#431370: should also support application/x-pdf MIME type

Elmar Hoffmann elho at elho.net

Package: evince
Version: 0.8.1-2
Severity: normal

/usr/lib/mime/packages/evince (evince.mime) only contains a line for
application/pdf, but not for application/x-pdf.

xpdf-reader for example provides both and as a result e.g. any PDF
file attached to a mail using the MIME type application/x-pdf gets
of course displayed by xpdf despite a /etc/mailcap.order that prefers
evince.
