Could not reproduce on Arch Linux. What platform are you on?
Comment 2 Karmo Rosental 2016-12-05 11:12:06 UTC 
Kubuntu 16.10.
Comment 3 Elvis Angelaccio 2016-12-06 10:07:58 UTC 
Please post the output of:

    xdg-mime query filetype <some_binary_file>


Also, what's your version of shared-mime-info?
Comment 4 Karmo Rosental 2017-01-04 20:33:12 UTC 
$ xdg-mime query filetype /bin/nano
application/x-sharedlib
$ xdg-mime query filetype lmms
application/x-sharedlib

All binaries are application/x-sharedlib.

$ dpkg -l | grep shared-mime-info
ii  shared-mime-info                                1.7-1

This is wrong, report it to the Kubuntu people. You should get:

$ xdg-mime query filetype /usr/bin/nano
application/x-executable
