[Sebastien Bacher]

The 2.2 version is in kinetic, it would be possible do include the
change in a stable update if it was determined to be important enough
which is unclear at this point since that report was the only report of
the issue so far

A fix was released upstream in shared-mime-info 2.2 (2022-03-27). Sadly,
this didn't make it to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1878617] Re: Apple pages file type should be added to MIME types

[Sebastien Bacher]

Thank you for your bug report. Could you add an example of a such file to the 
bug?
How do you want to open the files? If it's from e.g nautilus then mime-support 
isn't the right place where the mimetype needs to be defined but rather 
shared-mime-info

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1878617] Re: Apple pages file type should be added to MIME types

[Charles Plessy]

Hello,

You can add `application/vnd.apple.pages pages` in `/etc/mime.types` on
your system, and I will do it in a future update of the `mime-support`
package, but it will not effect the output of the `file` command, which
uses a different database.

You can open a bug on the `file` package to request it, but please have
a look if you can at 
before: as you will see, unless you can provide a “magic number” for
that format (a proprietary format from a proprietary software, if I may
comment), it may not be possible to detect it.

You can also have a look at the `shared-mime-info` package for another
way to associate the `.pages` file suffix to the
`application/vnd.apple.pages` media type.

Have a nice day,

Charles Plessy
