Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
Hello,
evince is using a priority of 5 in /usr/lib/mime/packages/evince for
mime-type image/*. This prevents other packages from using a more
specific mime-type to override this.
I normally use "display" from the ImageMagick package and I see no
possibility to make the system use "display" by default for images as
long as evince is catching everything with the "image/*" entry.
>From the update-mime manpage:
Mime types of the form "class/*" and even "*/*" are now acceptable (they
were previously disal‐
lowed). When using "class/*", it is probably a good idea to add a
"priority=[1-4]" option so spe‐
cific rules using the default priority will get chosen first.
I would suggest using priority=1 for the entry as this places it at the
bottom of the /etc/mailcap file.
