Hi Helmut, and everybody, I have just uploaded media-types 4.0.0, which I hope removes all regressions regarding duplicated file extensions in the `application/` types.
Interestingly, there has been duplicates in our `mime.types` file for a long time, but never within the `application/` type. Several subtypes are listed under both `text/` and `application/`, for instance `x-sh`. I have left this unchanged as we are close to the release. The changes I made are described in `debian/changelog` of course, and I also kept a record of the cases where an arbitrary decision is needed in the source package's `README.md` file. https://salsa.debian.org/debian/media-types/-/blob/4.0.0/debian/changelog https://salsa.debian.org/debian/media-types/-/blob/master/README.md Le Mon, Jan 11, 2021 at 08:23:24AM +0100, Helmut Grohne a écrit : > > That still leaves the question of why extensions suddenly are case > sensitive (another regression of media-types) even though most consumers > treat them as case insensitive.

Earlier release of Debian already shipped a `mime.types` file with upper-case file extension, so I think that their presence is not a regression, although I agree that it might be a problem. I propose to resolve that in the next release.
