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

[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

Title:
  Apple pages file type should be added to MIME types

Status in shared-mime-info:
  Unknown
Status in mime-support package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in shared-mime-info package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  LibreOffice can open .pages files (from Apple pages). However, the
  mime type for these files is incorrectly just application/zip:

  $ file --mime-type example.pages
  example.pages: application/zip

  Instead, it should be application/vnd.apple.pages .

  This would allow the user to associate LibreOffice Writer with these
  types of files, and use it to open this file. (LibreOffice Writer can
  open .pages files)

  Apple Keynote files should have this MIME type:
  application/vnd.apple.keynote

  Apple Numbers files should have this MIME type:
  application/vnd.apple.numbers
