Bug#436441: Specify OpenDocument icon(s) in Apache 1.3, Apache2 configuration

From: Lars Noodén <lars(at)umich.edu>
Date: Tue Aug 07 2007 - 09:39:20 EDT


Package: apache-common
Version: 1.3.34-4.1

No error, this is an enhancement request for Apache 1.3 and Apache 2 and it recycles material from Ubuntu bug # 13086

        https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/130836

Debian users will be creating a lot of files in the OpenDocument format via the packages OpenOffice.org and Koffice. Apache should be configured to identify these file since they are common.

There are at least three ways of meeting this goal:

  1. Perhaps ideal would be specific identification of each MIME-type: AddIcon /icons/odf_text.gif .odt AddIcon /icons/odf_spreadsheet.gif .ods AddIcon /icons/odf_presentation.gif .odp AddIcon /icons/odf_drawing.gif .odg AddIcon /icons/odf_chart.gif .odc AddIcon /icons/odf_formula.gif .odf AddIcon /icons/odf_database.gif .odb AddIcon /icons/odf_image.gif .odi AddIcon /icons/odf_masterdocument.gif .odm
     AddIcon /icons/odf_text_template.gif .ott
     AddIcon /icons/odf_spreadsheet_template.gif .ots
     AddIcon /icons/odf_presentation_template.gif .otp
     AddIcon /icons/odf_drawing_template.gif .otg
     AddIcon /icons/odf_chart_template.gif .otc
     AddIcon /icons/odf_formula_template.gif .otf
     AddIcon /icons/odf_image_template.gif .oti
     AddIcon /icons/odf_web_page_template.gif .oth

OpenDocument's MIME-types are already registered in /etc/mime.types which Apache2 reads.

b) Next best would be one icon each for data and templates:

     AddIcon /icons/opendocumentfile.gif .odt .ods .odp .odg .odc .odf
.odb .odi .odm

Do you need help?X

     AddIcon /icons/opendocumenttemplate.gif .ott .ots .otp .otg .otc
.otf .oti

c) The least work would be on icon to represent all the MIME-types:

    AddIcon /icons/odf.gif .odt .ods .odp .odg .odc .odf .odb .odi .odm
.ott .ots .otp .otg .otc .otf .oti

At this point it doesn't matter so much which icons are used, it is enough to have any kind of identifying icon (that fits in with the system's themes) for the documents. If a starting suggestion is needed, then the following images and masks might be useful in creating the icon(s):
