[Bug 1778088] [NEW] DjVu Files cannot be opened

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When trying to open a .djvu document, evince shows an error:

  File type DjVu image (image/vnd.djvu) is not supported

Apparently, upstream has removed the image/vnd.djvu mimetype in an
effort to treat single-page .djvu files more like images
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754467). The file in
question is however a multi-page, yet the mime-type is not the expected
"image/vnd.djvu+multipage":

  $ file book.djvu
  book.djvu: DjVu multiple page document
  $ file --mime-type book.djvu
  book.djvu: image/vnd.djvu

This happens on all bionic machines I have access to.
