Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: file

libmagic1-4.26-2ubuntu4

running "file -i" on an mkv file (matroska video) results in
"application/octet-stream" for the mime type.  While not technically
inaccurate, the generally accepted type for this filetype at the moment
is "video/x-matroska" which can be evidenced by looking in
/etc/mime.types, where it's already defined this way.
