Description Josselin Mouette 2006-05-24 22:32:39 UTC
[ forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/368772 ]

The following PDF file:
http://plone.org/documentation/manual/definitive-guide/definitive_guide_to_plone.pdf

is incorrectly detected as a text/plain file by the slow mime type detection (while the fast detection correctly detects application/pdf as says the extension).

Believing the MIME database the file magic for application/pdf is "%PDF-" and the file correctly starts with this string.

Other PDF files on my system are detected correctly.
