OK, so it's not that mime.cache is "corrupt". If you mv it out of the way and then "dpkg-reconfigure shared-mime-info" it will recreate the file. After doing this, firefox still exits with a SIGBUS. For some reason the Debian build of firefox simply can't handle /usr/share/mime/mime.cache. With mime.cache mv'd out of the way, I can confirm that the following will work again: * File -> Open * File -> Save Page As * Right click an image and Save as. * Browse for a file via a HTML form. * ...probably anything else mentioned in this bug report.
