Package: base-files Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org
Dear Santiago, the mime-support package that I maintain can be thought of two compontents: - the /etc/mime.types file, that is parsed directly by some indepentent packages such as apache2, and - the mailcap system, with its executables, its configuration files, its dpkg triggers, etc... I am currently planning to separate these components and one possibility would be to have a single package for /etc/mime.types, that would track the one in Fedora's Git repository. I detailed this in <https://bugs.debian.org/786889>. Alternatively, we could ship this file in base-files, since it is among these traditional Unix files that one always expects to be available. But it has frequent updates, to it may be extra work for you. What do you think about this ?
