Package: mime-support
Version: 3.37-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

In /etc/mime.types, one can read

application/rtf
text/rtf                                        rtf

so that when attaching a .rtf file in a mailer, it is reported as
text/rtf, and when recipient double clicks on it, a text viewer is
launched instead of OpenOffice.org for instance...

RTF format, tough a textual format, is not really readable as text (just
like PostScript is not very readable). mime.types should rather only
provide:

application/rtf                                 rtf
