I think they are:

emilio at debian:~$ grep djvu /usr/share/applications/evince.desktop
MimeType=application/pdf;application/x-bzpdf;application/x-gzpdf;application/postscript;application/x-bzpostscript;application/x-gzpostscript;image/x-eps;image/x-bzeps;image/x-gzeps;application/x-dvi;application/x-bzdvi;application/x-gzdvi;image/vnd.djvu;image/tiff;application/x-cbr;application/x-cbz;image/*;application/vnd.sun.xml.impress;application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.presentation;

There is 'image/vnd.djvu' there.

That's why I was asking you to run 'file -i *.djvu', because perhaps there are
other MIME types for djvu files.

Anyway, I've just downloaded http://djvu.org/docs/DjVu3Spec.djvu, and then I've
double-clicked on it, and it has been opened with Evince.

Yeah, I do. I've just created a new user and tried with it, and it worked fine too.

Can you please run 'file -i somefile.djvu' on a djvu file that has
the problem, and post here the output?

Thanks,
