[Bug 1857824] Re: kmimetypefinder5 misidentifies mimetype of python files containing certain strings

[Kai Kasurinen]

testing with xdgmime [1] (reference implementation of the spec [2] and
also used tests on shared-mine-type):

> ../xdgmime/src/print-mime-data .
test.py:
        name: text/x-python
        data: application/xhtml+xml
        file: application/xhtml+xml

> ../xdgmime/src/test-mime test.py
File "test.py" has a mime-type of application/xhtml+xml

kmimetypefinder5 is just a tiny wrapper over QMimeDatabase [3][4]. So
bug is likely on shared-mime-info or Qt implementation.
