Description Elvis Angelaccio 2016-09-14 08:02:27 UTC 
The latest release of shared-mime-info introduced a new mimetype for RAR files and deprecated application/x-rar.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Elvis Angelaccio 2016-09-14 10:22:54 UTC 
Git commit 9a9a851049cd904f08c9594cc6aacf696886404e by Elvis Angelaccio.
Committed on 14/09/2016 at 10:09.
Pushed by elvisangelaccio into branch 'Applications/16.08'.

Add support for application/vnd.rar, fixes opening RAR with shared-mime-info 1.7

shared-mime-info 1.7 introduced the official IANA mimetype
`application/vnd.rar` and degraded `application/x-rar` to alias.

For now we need to register both mimetypes. Once distributions start
shipping shared-mime-info 1.7, we can drop the alias.

For this reason, we cannot have a reliable test case in mimetypetest.
Also, in `PluginLoader::sortByComment()` we need to check whether
mimetypes are valid, because `application/vnd.rar` might not be in
`QMimeDatabase()`.
FIXED-IN: 16.08.2

Closes T3729

This is a really annoying bug. I have to downgrade to 1.6.8...
