Description Vinay M R 2004-11-23 01:16:46 UTC

When the name of a StarOffice file has its extension in capitals (ie, SXW or SXC
instead of sxw or sxc), Nautilus shows them as ZIP files.  It also displays the
contents when double-clicking on them, rather then starting StarOffice.

Patch which fixes the problem

Most of the staroffice format files are archived files so when gnome-vfs tries
to match the magic key it matches with the tar files. Need to add the capital
extensions for all staroffice formats.

Attaching a patch which adds entries for capital extensions in the glob file.

This will still break for .sXw files for example, and for non-staroffice zipped
files. Maybe extension matching should be case insensitive...
