Bug#658139: evince: missing mime entry

[Andreas Tille]

Package: evince
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

several programs (for instance see, mc) are regarding mime entries
in mailcap file and can not find a PDF viewer in case only evince is
installed.  This ends up in something like:


$ see test.pdf 
Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "application/pdf"


I set this to important because this is somehow breaking the usual
functionality of those programs.  The following patch will fix this:

diff -Nru /dev/null evince-3.2.1/debian/evince.mime
--- /dev/null
+++ evince-3.2.1/debian/evince.mime
@@ -0,0 +1,2 @@
+application/pdf; /usr/bin/evince %s; test=test "$DISPLAY" != ""; description=Portable Document Format; nametemplate=%s.pdf; priority=6
+application/x-pdf; /usr/bin/evince %s; test=test "$DISPLAY" != ""; description=Portable Document Format; nametemplate=%s.pdf; priority=6


Kind regards and thanks for maintaining evince

      Andreas.
