The desktop entry file for chromium does not define MIME-Types chromium is able to handle. Adding the MIME-Types enables some applications to offer chromium to handle a file. Nautilus (gnome-base/nautilus-2.28.4-r1) offers Mozilla Firefox and Opera for html files in the "Open with" context-menu. The desktop entries of www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.6.6 and www-client/opera-10.60 include MIME-Types text/html, text/xml and application/xhtml+xml (plus some more). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Nautilus, go to a directory containing a html file 2. Open the context-menu for the html files (right-click, of main menu "File") 3. Unfold the "Open with" menu entry Actual Results: Chromium is not listed in the nautilus "Open with" context-menu for a html file. Expected Results: Chromium is listed in the nautilus "Open with" context-menu for a html file.
