Yes, it _is_ what should be done. "install-mime" handles multiple entries
for the same mime-type. Thus, if both "ghostview" and "gv" get installed,
the user is given the choice of which is to have priority in the mailcap file.
Trust me, this will work. It was designed to handle just this case.
Please see the "install-mime" man page for more information.
