Same problem here, nautilus treats every file type as a text file. But, it's not only nautilus is at fault. Using a terminal to open a pdf file with evince gives the error message:
File type plain text document (text/plain) is not supported. However, using eog from a terminal to open a png file works normally, although the same file can't be opened through nautllus. File-roller also works normally from a terminal, but fails through nautilus. -- shared-mime-info-0.7-ubuntu1 update is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444962 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to shared-mime-info in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
