patch to fix b0rked mime.[types,convs] files
This patch fixes the problem with the cups mime.types and mime.convs files.
I'm not sure it's such a great idea to allow raw printing by default. Many
users will not need this exposure and this area is well doumented.
However, non-optional default use of an alternate pdftops filter doesn't seem
like a great idea. Especially since it wants to install X.
If the filter is that much better make it optional and handle it without the X
install.

Printing breaks, mime.types is empty, unpacking error as well: >>> Unpacking pdftops.pl to /var/tmp/portage/cups-1.1.23-r3/work unpack pdftops.pl: file format not recognized. Ignoring. And the RDEPEND of xpdf is all wrong - prevents CUPS from being installed without X which is not desired for a server. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge cups-1.1.23-r3 2. 3. Actual Results: printing broken I refused to install it on servers as it wanted to install X as well.
