+  <item>Packages already shipping <em>FreeDesktop menu entries</em> should use
+  them to associate applications with media types.  Only in the absence of
+  desktop entries, a file in <em>mailcap</em> format should be used.
+  Associations between media types and files should be done via upstream
+  databases, nevertheless it is also possible to register these associations
+  directly in Debian if needed.
