Description David Faure 2008-03-27 03:39:20 UTC 
A mimetype without a comment is not really useful; the user wouldn't know what the file of that type really is.

The problem is, I don't know either, what the application/x-dbm mimetype in freedesktop.org.xml.in is about - cvs log doesn't help since it was imported as part of revision 1.1 of freedesktop.org.xml by talex, and it wasn't in kde3 either. http://filext.com/file-extension/DBM has 5 suggestions for *.dbm files, but no information about magic...

I suggest to clarify or remove this mimetype.

* freedesktop.org.xml.in: Remove useless application/x-dbm
