When I try to view a PDF attachment in Gnus, Emacs will try to launch 'gv'. However, 'gv' is not installed, and I'd like to use 'evince' instead. This is remedies easily enough by adding the appropriate line (application/pdf; evince %s) in ~/.mailcap, but I think we should avoid a default, hardcoded mailcap-mime-data contents that doesn't match available applications.
I think using xdg-open would solve this.
Seen on oneiric.
