Package: mime-support Version: 3.54 Severity: normal Somewhere between squeeze and wheezy, media types application/x-md5 and application/x-sha1 were added.

It would be easier if they were under the text group. (This is not an uncommon problem if you search around the internet.)
What were the reasons behind the current choice? I couldn't find anything in the change log. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.9-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash mime-support depends on no packages.
