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.

Looks like this actually does work now thanks to mime-support > 3.53. In
theory, a reccommends or depends would make this bug actually
technically correct, but as long as it works, which it seems to, I'm
happy.
Sorry for the noise!
Neil
