I'm using the new feature in the fossil server to server static web pages. More specifically, I'm using 0install feeds to extend fossil so that it can also serve as a package distribution server.

This would all work fine however fossil does not recognize the *.gpg extension as pgp mime type. This is a requirement for 0install in order to check package signatures.

Can you please add .gpg as a recognized mime-type? There is already a *.pgp but I could not fool 0install into using the renamed public key file.

i cannot seem to find an official mimetype for these and am hesitant to just set it to application/octet-stream or text/plain. Suggestions?

Search for "Mime type" at http://fileext.com/file-extension/PGP

That link should be: [http://filext.com/file-extension/GPG] But there's no official mimetype there.
