[Bug 899881] Re: Unable to open xpi files

Because xpi are basically zip archives and some developers/translators use 
file-roller to extract/modify files inside.
Also xpi files are not used only by Firefox, but by many Mozilla-based product 
like Thunderbird, Instantbird, Songbird...

[Bug 899881] [NEW] Unable to open xpi files

2011-12-04 Thread Antoine Turmel
Public bug reported:

Since Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric, I can't open xpi files with file-roller.

I have an error that the file is not recognized. One way around is to
rename the filename and change .xpi by .zip

I think this could be a mimetype issue, since it could be resolved
adding .xpi extension to zip mimetype.
