[Bug 309778] Re: KDE always associates *.jar with the zip mime type

[Harald Sitter]

sun-java6-jre: /usr/share/mime/packages/sun-java6-jre.xml
this file is at fault.

Quoting:
	<mime-type type="application/java-archive">
		<comment>Java Archive</comment>
		<glob pattern="*.jar"/>
	</mime-type>

Since this overrides the default fdo xml it decreases the hit accuracy
(thus we get 40 in kmimetypefinder...) only the file extension matches
up, while everything else indicates zip, so result is zip, since a file
extension can be wrong at times.

How to proof:
- remove above quoted parts from the affected file
- sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
- kbuildsycoca4
- kmimetypefinder jNetTool-0.4.0.jar 
application/x-java-archive
(accuracy 100)
