Package: nautilus
Version: 2.14.1-4
Severity: normal

Nautilus will not open some PDF files on a doubleclick. However,
right clicking and using "Open With..." to choose xpdf or "Document Viewer"
works fine.

Here is the text from an error dialog. This file is available
at http://plone.org/documentation/manual/definitive-guide/definitive_guide_to_plone.pdf:

Cannot open definitive_guide_to_plone.pdf

The filename "definitive_guide_to_plone.pdf" indicates that this file is of type "PDF document". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "plain text document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.

Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "plain text document", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
