Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

This is a problem that I have noticed for a number of years on several
different machines and several different Ubuntus.

It is customary for a file manager to display documents of different
filetype as icons of associated with that filetype.   Nautilus, by
default, my displays documents using a default document icon.  This is
the case for .pdf files and .lyx files. [I have turned off the option to
display .pdf as a thumbnail].  I have experimented with only these two
filetypes.

I used assogiate to set the filetype icons for .lyx and .pdf filetypes
to ones of my choosing. These save properly in assogiate. When I run
assogiate the new icons show for these filetypes and the machine has
been halted and booted again since I set them.

However, Nautilus persists with displaying the default icon for both
.pdf and .lyx files.

I am running Nautilus 2.32.0 on 10.10 maverick:
Kernel Linux 2.6.35-23-generic
Gnome 2.32.0
