Still the issue with 12.04 :(

Because of this bug Zotero/Firefox opens pdf attachements in gimp. And
it does so without asking which application to use - you double click on
pdf file, and it opens in gimp (instead of shiny okular0.15 with really
embeddable annotations).  The "easy" solution which some really use is
to remove gimp, others take a harder way of installing mozplugger,
braves modify /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache.

Title:
  GIMP set as default pdf viewer

Status in “gimp” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gimp

  After installing GIMP on Lucid, GIMP became the default application to
  open PDF files, instead of evince. While GIMP can open PDF files, this
  surely is not what most people want. Please fix this.

  May be related to debian bug #525077, but I am not sure.

  In any case, /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache contains
  application/pdf=gimp.desktop;evince.desktop;
