OK, so it's not that mime.cache is "corrupt". If you mv it out of the
way and then "dpkg-reconfigure shared-mime-info" it will recreate the
file. After doing this, firefox still exits with a SIGBUS.
For some reason the Debian build of firefox simply can't handle
/usr/share/mime/mime.cache.
With mime.cache mv'd out of the way, I can confirm that the following
will work again:
* File -> Open
* File -> Save Page As
* Right click an image and Save as.
* Browse for a file via a HTML form.
* ...probably anything else mentioned in this bug report.
