Modifying /usr/share/mime/packages/scidavis.xml like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mime-info xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info">
  <mime-type type="application/x-scidavis">
    <comment>Scidavis project</comment>
    <comment xml:lang="fr">Projet Scidavis</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.sciprj"/>
	 <magic priority="100">
                <match type="string" value="SciDAVis"
offset="0"/>
         </magic>
  </mime-type>
</mime-info>

works except that i would like to associate an icon to this type of file and i don't
achieve it.
Any more help ?

Thanks
