Description Christian Lohmaier 2013-05-20 11:58:24 CEST 
Description of problem:
When doing a minimal install, like for example from the dual-arch iso, shared-mime-info is neither included in task-gnome[-minimal], nor in evince itself.

Trying to open a pdf with evince then fails with a message about it not being able to handle "application/octet-stream".

Installing shared-mime-info package solves the problem.
