Bug#485660: nautilus: Refuses to open Makefiles, C source, README files

[Julian Andres Klode]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.20.0-4
Severity: normal

On my newly installed Debian unstable system, I clicked on a README file,
and nautilus refused to open it. The expected behaviour would be to open
the file in gedit. This also applies to Makefiles, C sources, C headers,
and probably more files.
