This is split out from bug 43945. When Nautilus can't find any component to
handle a file, it puts up a message that says "Nautilus cannot handle files of
type <type name>". This is not always accurate, because it's possible that
Nautilus can handle local files of that type but not remote ones. This is true,
for example, for RPM files. So this message should be changed to make it more
accurate.

To reproduce:
1) Navigate to a vault directory containing an rpm file
2) Double-click on the RPM

You get a message that says 'Nautilus ... cannot handle files of type "RPM
Package"', which is false.

This bug is about simply rewording this message to not be false. I will write up
another shortly about distinguishing the different cases better.

We should definitely fix this one, unless we fix 4932 or 4933 instead.

John, I'm not sure if this is technically fixed. The current error is:

	'Nautilus has no installed viewer capable of displaying "therpmsfilename.rpm"'

...but it's also misleading. Nautilus has the RPM view available, and it can
display the file. 

If I understand the original bug report, the real problem is that the RPM can't
be viewed within Nautilus when it's accessed through WebDAV.

Re-opening to fondly annoy John.

Changing back to FIXED to annoy Eli. Note that there are various related 
issues here, and I had already written them up as separate bugs. The 
one Eli is trying to turn this bug into is bug 44933. This bug was about 
Nautilus claiming it couldn't open files of a given type when that is not the 
general case. Now it does not claim that, so this bug is fixed. Bug 44933 is 
still open.

Oops. Hadn't seen that one. Verified fixed. Thanks, John!
