Public bug reported:
I use Ubuntu 11.10 and the mimetype of files in mobipocket format (*.mobi) is
still missing.
The tool "mimetype" gives me an "application/octet-stream" and nautilus also
lists them as unknown while the tool "file" has no problem to recognize them as
"Mobipocket E-book" (but also gives an "application/octet-stream" when asking
for a mime type).
Google says, that the correct mime type should be
"application/x-mobipocket-ebook"
I don't know wether this also should be mentioned here but: if
installed, these books are for example readable with fbreader.
