Bug#728794: shared-mime-info: please add mime-type entry for DOOM game data

[Fabian Greffrath]

Package: shared-mime-info
Version: 1.0-1+b1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

Hi,

please add a mime-type entry for DOOM game data.

The files should have the *.wad extension and the first four bytes must either
be "IWAD" or "PWAD". The files are currently recognized as "application/octet-
stream":

$ file /usr/share/games/doom/freedoom.wad
/usr/share/games/doom/freedoom.wad: doom main IWAD data containing 3286 lumps
$ file /usr/share/games/doom/freedoom.wad --mime-type
/usr/share/games/doom/freedoom.wad: application/octet-stream

Thanks,

Fabian
