NO!!! The offending entry is for application/msword - NOT for
application/msword-template! I can open Word templates just fine in OO.o
and they have the correct description. The only thing that needs
changing is OpenOffice's broken MIME package which changes the
description for application/msword to "Word document template". It
shouldn't be defined at all in that file. I removed it and now
everything works fine.
application/msword-template is a different bug and concerns only shared-
mime-package, and furthermore it doesn't have any adverse effects other
than not following IANA recommendations.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
/usr/share/mime/packages/openoffice.org-common.xml (line 63) which is
installed with OO.o defines the mimetype "application/msword" with the
description "Word document template". This causes all Word documents (both
*.doc and *.dot) to be described as "Word document template in Nautilus.
<mime-type type="application/msword">
<comment>Word document template</comment>
<glob pattern="*.dot"/>
</mime-type>
- The solution is to change that mimetype to application/msword-template, as
used by freedesktop.org shared-mime-database. (Probably this has to be changed
in some source file used to generate this file.)
- <mime-type type="application/msword-template">
- <comment>Word document template</comment>
- <glob pattern="*.dot"/>
- </mime-type>
+ The solution is to remove this part of the file altogether.
