Yes, I got that.

I had some time to hack on this topic. You have to add lines in your
/etc/mailcap file. On debian, one should not edit that file by hand. There is
a update-mime util for that. So my /usr/lib/mime/packages/geda looks like
this:

application/x-pcb-layout; pcb '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" ; priority=4
application/x-pcb-footprint; pcb '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" ; priority=4
application/x-pcb-netlist; gvim '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" ; priority=4
application/x-geda-schematic; gschem '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" ; priority=4
application/x-geda-symbol; gschem '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" ; priority=4

Then one should run update-mime. I don't know what system are you using
though.
