Dear Friends,
OO saves correctly as .odt or whatever, clicking on .odt calls oo, coorectly, but the icon and descrition are both for zip file, which, theoretically is correct, but, obbviously not what I want.
I have now read reams on the topic, without getting a simple answer:
make gnome recognise that when I save a file as odt, ods, and so on, I want the correct mime-type, file association, and icon.
Is this really so complex?
Very best to all,
martin

I saved a couple files as .odt and the icons look like a typed page with a couple seagulls (in nautilus). Everything looks OK to me.
The Debian package install scripts should have updated your mime database when you installed Oo.org. Maybe you found a bug in the install?
Does
# update-mime-database
do anything?

I have no idea if this is what you need, but I stumbled across this a few days ago:
