Description Christian Biesinger 2005-10-29 18:13:49 UTC 
The .tar.gz file from ftp://ftp.sgi.com/opengl/opengl14.tgz is recognized as a
TeX font metrics file. However, it is really a .tar.gz file.

This means that gnome doesn't let me open the file by doubleclicking it.

$ apt-cache show shared-mime-info
Package: shared-mime-info
[...]
Version: 0.16-3

Hexdump of the start of the file:
$ xxd opengl14.tgz |head

Thanks for your bug report!
I cannot reproduce this issue with shared-mime-info/xdgmime HEAD. Since both
MIME types were basically left untouched, maybe you could check back whether
test-mime from xdgmime CVS (:pserver:anoncvs@cvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/mime
module: xdgmime) returns the correct MIME type? If so, the application/library
using xdgmime should sync with xdgmime HEAD.

Marking as WORKSFORME.
