Hello everybody again,
as of today, `/etc/mime.types` has 2183 entries, of which 1166 associate
file suffixes to media types. The other lines just declare the
existence of a media type.
I am not aware of uses of `/etc/mime.types` other than associating file suffixes and media types, suggesting that half of its contents, and the
updates to it, may be not useful.
I am curious if some of you know other uses of this file.
Have a nice day,
Charles
(maintainer of the `media-types` and `mailcap` packages)
