So I grepped $HOME/.local for x-extension-pdf and found a $HOME/.local/share/mime/application/x-extension-pdf.xml, which I've deleted. After doing "update-mime-database .local/share/mime/", gvfs- info reports the right info and the thumbs generate and display correctly in nautilus.
I don't know how that extra file got there in $HOME/.local, but after removing and updating the mime DB, it's fixed for me now. -- Evince no longer thumbnails pdfs in hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
