It's a good thing, but are you sure the MIME stuff you added is
correct? For reference:

application/x-lyx;      lyx-qt %s;      nametemplate=%s.lyx; test=test "$DISPLAY" != "";     priority=5
application/x-lyx;      lyx-xforms %s;  nametemplate=%s.lyx; test=test "$DISPLAY" != "";     priority=4
application/x-lyx;      lyx-gtk %s;     nametemplate=%s.lyx; test=test "$DISPLAY" != "";     priority=3


1. If you look at /etc/mailcap, most apps seem to have '%s' instead of
   just %s.

2. All MIME stuff is in lyx-common even though the other packages might
   not have been installed. Shouldn't there be one mime file for each
   arch package? (Alternatively, just one for the lyx package.)

3. Many have a description="..." as well.

4. Maybe an edit=... attribute would be good too, even if it's redundant.

This is not a show-stopper of course, I can upload the package anyway,
but I'd probably revert the MIME changes first unless 1 and 2 are
fixed. (I'm not sure what the correct fix is though because I haven't
read the policy about this.)
