[Bug 376568] [NEW] [Jaunty] nautilus displays wrong file type if extention present
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus Ubuntu Jauty 9.04 x86_64 kernel 2.6.28-11-generic, nautilus version 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2 Nautilus misjudges file type with incorrect extention. To reproduce: 1. Save a text file with .txt extention, and HTML page with .html extention. So far, so good. The properties dialogue of Nautilus shows correct MIME type, double-clicking the file opens it in the right application. 2. Rename the files to the different extention, say .rar .tgz .mp4 etc. Nautilus will now display archive icon, will display RAR (or TAR etc. respectively) MIME type, double-click will open files in Ark (or Totem for .mp4) Expected behaviour: no change in displayed icons, MIME type, and default applications for the files. 3. Rename the files so that there is no [known] extention at all. Everything is back to normal. Since file extention means little to none on *nix systems, Nautilus should not rely on known file extention to detect MIME type. Instead, it should always display correct MIME type based on file header (the way "file" command does), ignoring file extention altogether. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Jaunty] nautilus displays wrong file type if extention present https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376568 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I hit the exact same problem when performing clean 9.10 Karmic install preserving my home directory. I had 7.04, 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 clean installations before with no problems. Double-clicking folders on the desktop would open them implying there was an application registered for folder mime type. The places menu entries however did not work as per this bug report.

I am not sure if the problem occurred right after install or after tracker installation and removal (and then I have manually removed ~/.config/tracker file as well). It may worth to look at tracker app as a potential source of a problem, as it was installed on earlier versions of Ubuntu by default, and is supposed to index files and folders so it could possibly affect mimetype list somehow.
