So, what is happening here is that the mimetype of the attachment is
application/x-debian-package, which isn't a registered mimetype
according to glib. In this case, FIrefox is meant to fallback to looking
up via extension type (and it does correctly map the .deb extension to
application/x-deb, which is a registered mimetype), but the fallback
case is totally broken

** Summary changed:

- Architecture-independent .DEB packages (_all.deb) not connected to 
software-center
+ Default handler lookup by extension fails
