From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020618 Description of problem: When adding a custom mime-type for an ASCII file-type, the file is *always* mis-identified as text/plain. In my case, I'm trying to set up correct mime-handling for xmGrace project files. These are ascii-text files. I can add a new mime-type for this (i.e. application/x-xmgrace, I couldn't find a pre-defined one on the web) and give it a file-extension '.agr'. After doing this, all *.agr files are still identified as text/plain and opened with gedit. (I also tried using text/x-xmgrace but didn't make any difference) Also tried editing /usr/share/mime-info/gnome.mime, gnome-vfs.mime and /usr/share/mime/mime/magic but nothing seems to help. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.0 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Save a text file with some custom file-extension 2. Add a custom mime-type for that file-extension 3. Attempt to assign a custom mime-handler for that file extension Actual Results: File is *always* identified as 'text/plain', whatever the user does Expected Results: The file should now have been identified as the new custom mime-type and handled appropriately Additional info:
