Description Sebastien Bacher 2006-03-02 17:36:13 UTC
That bug has been described on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-vfs2/+bug/33301

"Abiword files MIME/Type is now text/plain according to Nautilus.

~ file ndls.abw
ndls.abw: XML document text

This prevents .abw file to be opened by double-clicking on it. It's also bad as they are previewed as txt files.

All .abw files suffer from this bug since 28 februrary upgrad

http://librarian.launchpad.net/1610927/ndls.abw
This file is considered a plain/text"


Downgrading to 2.13.91 fixes the issue

Thanks, that was an issue with shared-mime-info. I've committed a fix to shared-mime-info HEAD:

Comment 2 Sebastien Bacher 2006-03-02 20:53:30 UTC
Thanks for fixing it. Are you upstream or are you in touch with upstream for it? Current tarball (0.16) is almost one year old now and distribution are probably lacking a bunch of useful changes like that one since usually they use tarballs for the packaging...
